Scotland/Sturgeon

From Beammeupscottie
"Someone said to me, in Sainsbury's, that Scotland wouldn't leave Britain as it gets money from us and who would plug the gap. 10/10 for the answer. The EU!"

Those who believe Scotland has been a drain on UK and EU finances are mistaken.
Once Scotland is no longer entangled in the UK, that will become obvious.

Good Far North. Let England stew in its own juice.

Whoever said 'let England stew in it's own juice'... OOOh !

I am heartily sick of people slagging this little country off.

I have Irish neighbours of whom I am very fond, however when ever they get the opportunity they make sly digs at 'the English. I smile at them and really want to say, well if you feel like that then why live here?

So many people of other races who live here and slag us off.

If you really don't like us then bugger off.

For your information we have no juice left to stew in - other folk have all squeezed the life out of us.... NHS.. you can't get an appointment.. the doctor... you can't get an appointment until you are better.. housing... what a joke.

All the taxes and community charge I pay, and that entitles me to walk my doggies in the local country park I love and yet... people who can't even speak English pick up their children and scream when they see us coming towards them.

They are now saying the ex-pats who live in Spain will have to learn to speak Spanish... but what about all the people who live here in ghettos who will never speak a word of English? The ones who need interpreters in hospital or at the doctor? What about all these people who will never even try to integrate but want everything they can get whilst contributing nothing ??

Stop slagging the English off all of you. I am sure we will manage nicely when Scotland breaks all ties, and I do hope that includes monetary ties.

And if anyone wants to call me racist - then go for it. I am sick and tired of people going on about 'The English'

Thank you and goodnight

Scotland would be very happy to bugger off!

I'm English and you don't represent me.

European Parliament gave a Scotland MEP a standing ovation for his speech and saying 'Do not let Scotland down'

Looking like Scotland might be in EU ???

People who voted to leave are fantasists. The clock cannot be turned back. Dear old Blighty is finished.

Amazing isn't it? All those centuries it took to unite England/Wales and Scotland and it all goes up in a puff of referendum.

I thought I made it clear I was not representing anyone.

It's disgusting the way people go on about the English. I'm happy to be who I am, and would never have made such a post if it were not for all the rhetoric going on here.

Change the subject if you possibly can. Talk about something else. It is not nice to read insults all of the time. It's boring, and quite frankly I've had enough of it

All the usual suspects posting.......... blah blah blah go and bang your drum. My fingers are now in my ears girls

Nonnie. I have to assume that it is mostly the Scots you are talking about as you posted on this thread.

If you evict all the Scottish doctors in England you will wait even longer to see one. And if you evict all the non-British doctors and nurses, then don't risk being ill at all.

Thats right Nonnie, stick your head in the sand. What a childish act to block your ears.

And who's going to stand a chance at Wimbledon?

It's not the Scots I am posting about. It's people who seem to be anti 'English'

I don't want to evict anyone ! Interpret me at will

dd. If Andy Murray wins, he is going to declare his win for Scotland

I must admit I haven't heard any Gaelic speakers on the streets of England, so maybe she wasn't.

PS. Is it true that there's a proposal to rename England Poundland?

Good on Andy! Why not?

Oh I love that DD. POUNDLAND. For those who will buy any old crap.

Yup! That's the idea! Sweatshop of the world.

Showing your true colours here girls

nonnie I know perfectly well you also meant all the other nationalities, but on this thread I reply for Scotland.

On a thread entitled Scotland/Sturgeon you put a post saying "Stop slagging the English off all of you. I am sure we will manage nicely when Scotland breaks all ties, and I do hope that includes monetary ties."

All ties means those who work in England - and that includes a vast number of Scottish people, many of them doctors - one of Scotland's biggest traditional industries is training doctors and surgeons to serve the rest of the UK (and the world)

and elsewhere "If you really don't like us then bugger off." so consider yourselves evicted.

You say you are very fond of your Irish neighbours - you don't sound it. Could they, do you think, be doing the kind of chaffing that goes on between friends? Smiling sweetly at them and saying nothing in return could be the wrong response, they think you are with their joke - show them your post and let them know that you are hurt.

Hey dd remember that sketch from League of Gentlemen "local shop for local people" and the gruesome couple behind the counter.

nonnie - Here are the words of someone who was happy to be English this time last week-

"I don't think we will recover from this for decades. Feel totally gutted that we will almost certainly lose Scotland, particularly because my parents are Scottish but I was born and brought up here. I certainly don't feel English right now. Feel gutted that it won't be so easy for us to live in the EU. Feel so much instability for my girls future. I have no trust at all in our current regime or the lefts ability to influence them. So devastated. What a monumentally sad outcome."

Bonnie: I'm not going to call you a racist but you have reinforced my feelings of being ashamed to be English at this moment in time.

Tablet won't let me write N onnie either....
