The irony is that the two past mouth pieces of the SNP Sturgeon and Salmond both have old English surnames.
And of course Robert de Brus, was a Norman with family lands in England.
The Highlanders could not stand the Low landers because most were of English /Norman extraction
And the present Muslim conman leading the SNP is from some dirt family, whose immigrant bother in law is a convicted drug dealer.
The Scots make the rest of the UK look good.
We had another know it all from Dundee on here. Thought the sun shone out of Sturgeon's butt, even he realised the futility of that cause.
Btw Gazzleberry they've still got your campervan and where's that £600k, not to mention all those dodgy Amazon purchases. 🤣
Gone a bit quiet of late, I wonder why.
The wilful ignorance of Europe continues then mick?
Scottish independence seems to be a dead duck now!
@Richierich correct 100% They've over played the race card and with nothing left in the pack they've decided to change the rules of the game and add hate cards instead. Next it will be hurty words card. Putin is correct about one thing. the west is pathetic. It's as if all we have in power are the people that got bullied at school and now they are reeking their revenge.. can't wait for all the labourites to learn what the centre right have learned. It's the WEF that dictates policy,procedure and agenda.
Not your supposed representatives.
Maybe so , but it will be back to the low 40s in 6 months time imo
Pmsl..the Steven Bray types still going on about brexit..what a waste of Time and energy...cannot see another referendum for a very very long time ..possibly never...ps its all gone very quiet on the Scottish independence issue..is that now a non event ?.....
We didn't have forgien investments when we ruled the world.
Bad management by Tory/Labour Governments = Misery for many but self inflicted.

And yet my business in construction has made more money in the last 2 years than any year in the previous 15. Get out and graft and make your money work instead of the collective sulk that your lot have been in for the last 5 years.
LLOYDS closed 70p the day before the Brexit vote in 2016.
Then 55p the next day when we voted to leave the EU.
lloyds share price has NEVER recovered.
All you need to know about BREXIT.
Failing trade and reduced foreign investment as foreign companies choose to invest elsewhere.
Hopefully better than expected UK CPI inflation figures released tomorrow Wed 20th March may briefly re - energise the share price march towards the psychological 50p resistance level.
Need 56p to break been waiting since 2016 the movement rang is abysmal sooner watch paint dry.
My £500 in Metro is now £400 ish 😏
Just saying 🤣
Go back to bed :-)

For sterling, the next Bank of England move is anyone's guess
Naomi Rovnick

By Naomi Rovnick
LONDON, March 19 (Reuters) - Money market pricing and short-term trading signals make the idea of the first Bank of England rate cut coming in late summer look like a clear bet. Economists and strategists are predicting a starkly different outcome for interest rates and the pound.
Speculators have topped up their sterling holdings, with so-called net long positions having risen to the most on record, according to the latest CFTC data. Swaps markets price the first 25 basis point (bp) cut no sooner than August.
Sterling is the best performing G10 currency against the dollar so far this year.
The BoE is expected to hold rates at a 16-year high of 5.25% this week, but economists anticipate the first cut far sooner than traders expect.
Bruna Skarica, chief UK economist at Morgan Stanley, sees softer-than-expected pay data published last week as justifying a rate cut in May.
Barclays and Capital Economics are placing their bets on a cut in June.
Traders are focused on the BoE's hawkish rhetoric, according to Rabobank strategists. Economists are querying whether the central bank's inflation forecasting is once again wrong and how quickly policymakers might turn dovish if the central bank's expectations prove incorrect.
The BoE expects price growth to drop to its 2% target in the second quarter but to rebound to almost 3% later in the year.
Paul Dales, chief UK economist at Capital Economics, sees headline UK inflation dropping to 1.6% in April and drifting to less than 1% by the end of the year.
"The Bank might switch quite quickly to worrying about inflation being too low," he said. Dales sees the pound drifting down to $1.20 later this year, from close to $1.27 now.
The turning point for sterling could come as soon as Wednesday, when UK inflation data is released.
Economists polled by Reuters expect inflation to have dropped to 3.6% in February.
"A print closer to 3.2% could lead the (BoE) to soften its guidance language a bit more," Barclays strategists said in a note to clients, which could liven up market bets for a May cut.
The EU is in an even worse state than Britain, but Rejoiners couldn’t care less.
The strange desire to return to Brussels' embrace isn't rational. It's based on a wilful ignorance of Europe.
Take note STP, mick-b and a few others, your comments are based on a wilful ignorance of Europe.
We're staring down the barrell of a large majority labour UK government, Khans labour dominating London, Labour run Wales and SNP Scotland.
Alistair Campbell wants a 'Truth and Reconciliation Panel' to publicly shamed the patriots and libertarians who voted to leave the EU, Hamza Yousaf wants to 'eradicate' all Tory's from Scotland. This is just what they're saying in public.
The Labour run Welsh Senedd spent £200k banning GB news to protect its staff from 'hate'. Clearly they're unable to make an informed decision on their own.
I predict we'll be saying the word 'hate' and 'hateful ' a lot over the next few years for any dissenting opinion.
Is that the lot that were charged with breaking the uk impartiality rules 5 times.
Nigel Farage continues to spout crap and the suckers who support Reform UK, suck it up.
It’s sad to see Farage exploiting the ultra-gullible by saying that we have ‘the wrong type of Brexit’ and that if they simply give him some more money, he’ll deliver them a ‘real Brexit’ with all of the advantages he lied about in 2016.
Yes - a promising news series. Next week Truss interviews David Icke.
They will do to GB News what Tusk did to TVP in Poland. The WEF don't like it when your right out far right. Left and far left is the way they have dictated us to go and who knows the next Hitler might be dressed up like Eddie izzard on acid. The kids of the future will be saying. I get some people falling for a clown with a tash in the 1930s, but come on that man in the the frock who waved a free Palestine flag with a rainbow attached. How the fk didn't they know? Glad I'm not here when our kids off the future judge us. The people will get the blame of course like they did in 1930 for following him. The politicians will write the hands of any responding as usual. A vote for HIMLHER is a bit for common sense be fkd
Nigel Farage has had an interview with Donald trump, to be broadcast at 7pm today on GB News. The establishment/ofcom/other broadcasters are not liking the increasing popularity of
GB News.
