      This is one of the best characteristics of most Scots when they are having a good day - they can take a poke and some humour at their expense because they have a sense of humour and they know damn well that they'll not give any detractors the satisfaction - just laugh. It's better for your health any road. The folks that can't take a ribbing in the world are the ones that end up getting in nasty conflicts - everyone's pride and no sense of humour.

      Aye , that's one of the many unique things that puts the great in Britain . We British are the only one's in the world who have the decency and humility to joke about ourselves and laugh at ourselves. Whereas other countries are humourless in that regard . They can't laugh at themselves and in arrogance, they falsely accuse the British of being ' racist" simply because British humour often involves pointing out something that can be perceived as comical about other countries and cultures . I'm a Scottish woman too and I'm proud to be British and blessed with our special and unique sense of humour 😊

      Living in Cornwall I've seen one Scottish note in 24 years and I used to work behind a till.
      People aren't familiar with them so they're more easily duped by fakes thus they're better off not accepting them, it's that simple.

      We went to Scotland - my auntie, when drawing money out of her account in Edinburgh - only had two banks on every street corner - Bank Of Scotland and Royal Bank Of Scotland - when we returned to England, my auntie had loads of Scots notes and was able to use them everywhere - she was on a bus and handed over a Scottish fiver for the fare - “You’ve been to Scotland, I see”, said the driver - they accepted it, anyway!
      Over many years, we have been given Irish one pence coins, 10p coins from the “Bailiwick of Jersey” - even been given Deutschmarks and so on in change (didn’t always bother to check) - but the shops, whilst they were happy to give you foreign currency - they even think Scotland and Jersey are foreign countries - Scotland, maybe - it’s not England, despite what Americans might tell you to the contrary - but they won’t always accept them as payment - just as well Wales doesn’t have its own currency - imagine if it did - their banknotes would be written in Welsh, have pictures of Welsh bards or Dylan Thomas on them!

      Kirsten Easdale hey, I’m open to making fun of other cultures. That’s a part of comedy is poking fun at certain harsh subjects like race. I just don’t like how Macca has handled it, he seems very brash about how he insults the Scottish, like “Yes, us English are the superior race.” When the original commentator on this channel compared him to Dave Allen, if you ever go back and watch Allen’s comedy, he actually respects cultures while poking fun at them. Not just other cultures, but his own. Macintyre is just an asshole in this video, as he is with most of his comedy in my opinion, craving attention so he will do anything that’s not too offensive, unless it involves Scottish People.

      I always say they flick it back at you like it was a pair of dirty underpants. One time, my niece and I were in London and the waitress in the restaurant was flirting forever with the table across from us. We just ceased to exist when they came in. She wouldn't bring our bill so we totaled it ourselves and left two Scottish 10pound notes on the table.
