It has always puzzled me that our Scottish cousins strongly sought freedom but wanted to give it up to Europe, odd that.
Having lived in Scotland for five years it seems an emotional decision when a true patriot does what is best for his country not what suits his mood
Tinribs, as a Scotsman I have long since come to the conclusion, which I assume all would agree, the SNP are about as nationalist as Jeremy Corbyn. They are a confirmed leftist socialist party with a simplistic and quite backward view of British Imperialism, or as they would see it, 'English Imperialism', they'd deny any active participation in the days of Empire by anyone from Scotland or anywhere else outside England that is, however, unrealistic that would be. Quite simply they see the English in pantomime terms, as all conservatives and plummy accents. They hate the English and in fact are anti-nationalists hence the desire, like many leftist liberals, to hand Scotland over to the European Union, they can't wait, the Nationalist identity is to exploit that very genuine sentiment among those Scots which they would regard in the same way that the likes of Emily Thornberry regards Nationalist sentiment, either British or English, among Englishmen.
Especially ones with White Vans!
