What did Scotland get in return for our massive oil wealth?
A9 dualled? A96 dualled? Cheaper energy? Cheaper food? Cheaper public transport?
We got Thatcher, our kids killed fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan, Boris Johnson, Decades of austerity, our FoM stripped from us and next up Nigel Farage. UK👎🏼

You don’t need the BBC, or The Daily Telegraph which started the hare running on this story, to tell you that there was an American insurrection. We all saw it live on TV. And Trump caused it. The very fact we’re forced to debate this again shows how the media has caved in to rightwing extremism
Crisis-hit BBC is just another casualty of the collapse of the 20th century rulebook
Like the Tory-Labour duopoly and the NHS, the BBC is a hangover from an age that’s dying. We must find how to make the media relevant again,…

The reason 'being British' was invented was so people who were English didn't have to admit they were English and also for those lickspittle 'Scots 'who wished they were English but the English wouldn't allow them in.
If this statement doesn't make Scots want independence 😤, what will this man has just insulted us all, called us less than Englush ppl, and we contributed nada. Tell that to all our fathers/grandfather's that fought and died for the UK.

Scottish Labour should be wary. This is the kind of language that drove voters away in 2014/2015 ... if I was Sarwar I'd be distancing myself from it as much as possible frankly.
