    “your not welcome in our country scum”

    I’ve been made very welcome here, and by people from many walks of life.

    You jocks are boring me now. Stick to what you are good at. Whining. No doubt you won’t leave the union as you will have to put your hands in your pocket and pay your way. Something you have never done and no doubt never will.

    I think “bawbag” aptly sums up this fella! :mrgreen:

    As in the English are inferior?

    Er… no. Sorry to spell it out, but I was poking fun at your poor command of language (and apparent lack of debating skills or critical thought).

    Nothing like a bit of jock xenophobia

    Northwind, this argument is mince, since Scotland doesn’t have a choice if it is a signed up member of the EU. Scotland could only not fund EU students if it wasn’t a member of the EU.

    That’s exactly what I said 😕 So, er, thanks for supporting my point I guess.

    The rUK charges Scottish students. Scotland charges rUK students. rUK students in Scotland pay much the same as they would pay in the rUK. How frightfully, er, fair and equable.

    “Xenophobic = Relating to a substance foreign to the body” the only word found to describe people who despise another despite being of the same race

    Ever seen the video of Nigel Farage in Edinburgh? It’s embedded in this article:

    http://www.theguardian.com/politics/2013/may/16/nigel-farage-edinburgh-protesters-van

    You’ll note that those nasty “xenphobic” protestors were holding a big sign saying “Sexist, racist, homophobic, transphobic parties are not welcome in Scotland”.

    And the protestors in Aberdeen that he called “fascists” were in fact a group called “The Aberdeen Anti-Fascist Alliance”.

    SD-253 has previous.
    This is him defending Bloom from UKIP over his “Bongo Bongo land” quote:

    He is correct pity about his choice of words, as that just gives the politically correct middle class (so called) liberals a way of calling UKIP racist. If you given aid for the poor they just reduce there government spending on the needy by the same amount. India is prime example. If we are going to give aid at least we should choose what to give it for AND to be on the ground to see that’s what it is being used for?

    I am enraged by this thread.

    So many: your – you’re; their – there – they’re, mistakes!

    Argh!!!

    Pedantry aside, it’s actually quite difficult to understand what some are trying to say. Why don’t we meet in a pub tomorrow evening and discuss more clearly?! That’d be good.

    I know I said I would sign off, however felt compelled to say SD-253 appears to be showing lack of understanding of xenophobia as well as poor language skills.

    On Farage, I don’t understand why a protest of this sort was required. I am all for peaceful protest, which this went beyond. He is an idiot with little or no support in Scotland. This would not have changed had he been heard out. The entire event succeeded in looking ugly and legitimized Farage by giving him a platform on BBC Question Time.

    On the issue on being offended by banter, we recently had an “is jock offensive” thread. Many seem to consider it was, which is perfectly understandable, but we can’t say the English don’t get our banter when the situation is reversed. I would probably feel offended if I went to England and saw the flags in the windows on the last page but with the arrows reversed.

    Cunning use of ‘some are’. Taking no chances with the[y’re/ir/ere].

    Of course he has no support. You already have a nationalist party running the place.

    Yeah, I agree with that, I’m sure it was satisfying at the time but it was unproductive.

    Thing is, UKIP’s appeal is simple- they’re the party for people who think the Tories aren’t big enough *****. And in england, that’s a fairly large voter base. So by being bigger ***** than the tories they win votes

    But in scotland, the demise of the tories is because we don’t like *****. So trying to win votes by being even bigger ***** was never going to work very well.

    I’m not a supporter of the SNP at all, but you cannot equate the BNP(and their publicly “acceptable” face, UKIP) to the SNP.! 😀

    Their respective attitudes towards immigration alone stand them miles apart.

    The other day I saw a Scottish flag flying in a garden in Lincolnshire, what would happen if you flew an english flag in Scotland? How long would it be before they torched your house?

    Err, seriously? I guess you’ve never actually been to Scotland then.

    He did say earlier “What makes you think I would ever want to go to that disgusting country?”

    Though I’m sure he meant it in an entirely non-xenophobic way 😉

    That’s good as I plan to move to Barra or Ardnamurchan if the SNP claims UDI.

    That’s odd – he seems to be wearing an England strip in Central Scotland and yet for some reason he isn’t on fire?

    Terry Butcher in the Daily Record
    . I’m very happy here. I drive past Loch Ness every morning from my home up on the hills and I have never known a more beautiful commute.”After years of doing the M4 and M40, as well as the M25, do you know what it feels like to drive through Drumnadrochit on the A82 and look across the water to the village of Dores? Wow, it’s paradise.

    I don’t think it’s paradise more of a work in progress. …..but if there was ever a prouder more patriotic Englishman living in Scotland I don’t know who he is. .Terry Butcher is also pretty popular throughout Scotland even with this celtic fan 8)

    I am sure he will miss that commute gordimhor. Although supporting the union I do like to hear positive views of the Highlands. Steve Peat said something similar about Glencoe in a video with Hans Rey and Danny Macaskill.

    I laughed just looking at the banner.

    Street “hooliganism,” government welfare and alcoholism define much of Scottish culture.

    Yes, I’d say this 100% accurately reflects my street. FACT. Maybe even a SCIENCE FACT.

    I also eagerly anticipate liberation from Holyrood with the conquering army of Westminster. Will they bring Hershey bars?

    Genius article, thanks for sharing.

    UKIP supporters want to leave the European Union therefore racist. Scottish Nationalist want to leave the Union but not Rasicst? The hypocrisy of the middle class politically correct and of course the jocks themselves. I wonder how long before the latter complain to the moderator and have these views removed and me blocked again? Uhmm is that called censorship?
