Do you think Scotland will secede?

[Myrddraal]

I don't understand where the idea of English oppression comes from. I visited Wales recently, around the end of the Six Nations. Something that really suprised me was the low level anti English feeling.

If France or Italy play Scotland or Wales at Rugby, English people pretty much unanimously support Scotland and Wales. If France or Italy play England though...

It's all about hating the English. It's certainly not a feeling which is returned, the English don't oppress the Scots. Like people have previously mentioned, the Scots if anything have more rights than the English (the ability to pass laws for Scotland alone, whilst still having the same vote as the next man in National elections).

Well I find it a bit sad. We share a lot of history, we have a lot of shared culture (as well as our own independent history and culture). If anything, it's to honour the heritage we share that the Union exists, if it was all about economy, England would have seceded long ago.

Just remember this, being British doesn't make you less Scottish, just as being English doesn't make you more British. It really doesn't.

PS, Braveheart is the most ahistorical, anglo-phobic film ever, I really like the fact that the Scots are wearing Kilts!
