Seems to me that someone who mocks anyone who doesn't get details about Britain/England/UK/Scotland all right, and who was just professing knowledge about Quebec separatism, that's a pretty NOOB mistake to make. oui non?

So the Quebecans didn't vote by just half a percent to remain in Canada then?

The Turks and Caicos Islanders want to be Canadians even less than the Quebecans do.


That's not what they tell me when I've been down there.

Anyways, that doesn't change the reality that Britain's empire-ship is sinking remarkably fast.

Does that make you sad?

They can leave anytime they want Blackie... No one is standing in their way

Yeah. We've all seen the pictures of them on the news waving the Canadian flags and protesting outside parliament demanding they become Canadian.

They can leave anytime they want Blackie...

And they would have left in 1995 had the No to independence side not won by just half a percent.

I'm confident the Scots will vote much more unanimously to remain British. We all know that the Scots are more desperate to remain British than the Quebecans are to remain Canadian. That's because it's good being British.

I think its a most suitable date, the Scots should still be on the throne instead of the
bunch that are there now. I am all for Scotland leaving and no I don't think they'll
always be British. I hope there is a ground swell of support to shed themselves of
England.
It would be good to see and a date well chosen kind of makes up for the nasty bit of
history inflicted on the Scots by their neighbours to the south. In the South the Irish
shed themselves of the English and they are not British to the core are they. In the
North of Ireland my mother used to tell me they aren't really Irish anyway.
All this neo nazi stuff is a bit overdone as well. There is a long list of nations that
would take a little revenge if they could. Of course it might be because jolly old England
exploited their riches and subjected their nations to servitude for centuries.
What's the saying oh ya paybacks are hell.

No, because there's no such thing as Quebecans. Like I said..... if you're gonna nit pick people's posts, you've got to maintain a higher standard of correctness than this.

Yes it was a half percent and yes they remain Canadian for now until we do it again.
Same with Scotland I am sure they will try more than once if they don't get it this time.
I would like to see the Scots shed their ties altogether but that won't happen the whole
economics of it won't endear itself to that. One by one those who have been oppressed
by the colonial powers old and new will make their presence felt on the nations of fading
greatness and England is one of them

The Scots were forced to "join" the United Kingdom, against their will.

They have the absolute right to dissolve that Union, if that is their choice.

This has absolutely NOTHING to do with Argentina, or the Falklands war. It is a date selected by the Scots nationalists, for their own reasons.

Personally, I hope that they do decide to become independent. My family supported "Bonnie Prince Charlie", and were exiled from Scotland because of that support.

Wales is next in line!

Uh oh. Look who's heading your way...




Normally, Karl Pilkington is just a bald, rounded-headed, Manc twonk with a head like an orange, who has a girlfriend called Suzanne, is a fan of freaks like the Elephant Man and loves eating Monster Munch (although he'd eat a knob at night).

But, as soon as bull**** is uttered, his super hearing detects it, and he becomes transformed into the superhero we all know as Bulls**** Man, to eradicate the bull****.

And why does that surprise you? Most Lowland Scots were against Bonnie Prince Charlie, who was just a Scottish/Polish/Italian nobody who thought he'd come to Britain to claim the Throne that he thought was his just because his universally hated and despised grandfather, the former James II, used to have it (before he was ousted).

He was also a bit of a womaniser was our Charlie. In France he had an affair with his cousin - Marie Louise de La Tour d'Auvergne, wife of Jules, Prince of Guéméné. The French eventually got fed up of him, and kicked him out under the terms of the Treaty of Aix-la-Chapelle which brought the War of the Austrian Succession between Britain and France to an end. He died in Rome on 31st January 1788 having just turned 22 years of age.

I'd prefer England to gain her independence from Britain. I don't give a **** about the Jocks, Taffs and Paddies.

I'd find it hilarious if England seceded from the UK before Scotland, Wales and NI do.

BLackie needs to go to a farm equipment dealer and buy a manure spreader. Spreading it by hand is making lumps.

The vast majority of the "Lowland Scots" were English, not Scots, in both their ancestry and their customs. The English began planting immigrants in Scotland under Edward I. Virtually all Monarchs from Edward I onward gave titles, English lands, and wealth to the Scots Nobility. This was to bribe them into supporting England, and NOT Scotland; or at a minimum, staying "Neutral".

Unfortunately, Blackleaf has a VERY distorted view of history, and slants virtually everything into his pro-British viewpoint. So, he interprets virtually everything that concerns England (or the USA), as something that the English are superior at.
