Here is a post I did a few years ago.

It is a salute to Scots Fishermen. No more needs to be said on that score, except that the SNP has been consistent in supporting the industry throughout its time in power.
BTW. In England, it has been established in various tests that the English actually like Scots accents. If you need proof, just think of all the fantastic Scottish people who do the media so well - Laura Kuenssberg being one of my personal faves. When we hear a Scots accent, our day cheers up. When you lot hear an English one, the chips on shoulders start flying. It's not fair and you need to do something about it.

Fair comment Mr Weasel. Sometimes I am ashamed of my countrymen. Saying that, the scouse accent makes me want to cut my ears off.
I lived in london for a while with Jamaicans but it wasn't a patch on the racism i got in Scotland.I moved there thinking myself british and came back knowing I was English in no uncertain terms.The northern welsh were even worse
