Jimmy Long, it's alright to fly the Scottish Flag in England, and when you fly the Union Flag, it includes the English Saint George Cross, so I assume you admire the English Flag too! As for the e.u. rag, well, you used the right words.
Back to Sid: When England and Scotland united with one Parliament, the Scots had been advocating this unity for a long time, and the unity came about to fulfil this wish and desire of the Scots no less than of the English.
You will find that the English and Scots are not at all despising each other!Chanters, Drums and Drones Potty Time http://youtu.be/99fMqpjnXYA

You are nearly right when you say the scots had been advocating union with england. The facts are as follows. The lowland scots wanted union with england because of trade considerations, however the highland scots had not much to gain by union with england as there was not much trade between the two. The union between the two nations was signed in 1704 in Edinburgh, contrary to popular belief it was not a happy union and the members of the scottish assembly who signed the union treaty had to flee for there lives.
This explains why the lowland scots supported the duke of Cumberland in 1745 at the battle of Culloden.
I personally have never had any trouble with my english neighbours (I dont tell them I am scottish), besides after all this time I have learned to tolerate them and am philosophical about there failings!! !! - Brian Dixon

- 22 May 2010 18:3352953Alexander, you should read postings more carefully before commenting. I didn't accuse the Scots of burning the flag of St. George; I merely suggested they might cheer at the sight of it.
