I remember when my sister - who likes in glasgow - was really upset when her so-called "left-leaning" scotnat "friend" got pissed up and started haraunging her - "all scotland's problems are because of sassenach cunts like you" etc etc. FFS. Petty nationalism = teh sukc.

Just on the basis of knowing/ have known a lot of SNP voters I suppose.

― CRW (CRW), Thursday, 27 May 2004 11:15 (nineteen years ago) link

well, the bnp have been working in rural areas and small towns for quite a while.

― Dave Stelfox (Dave Stelfox), Thursday, 27 May 2004 11:15 (nineteen years ago) link

Well is being anti-English racist? If so, plenty of SNP voters are racists

― Dadaismus (Dada), Thursday, 27 May 2004 11:16 (nineteen years ago) link

I would say that many Scottish people feel angry towards the idiots down South who voted for four consecutive Tory governments, at the expense of us (who REALLY felt the brunt of it). If the Southerners weren't caring about what was going on up here, should Scottish people not have a right to vote for an independent country? (I say this without having any allegiance to the SNP BTW).

But I'm not sure SNP voters are anti-English any more than Tory voters are anti-Scottish (though I'd say that Tory voters have invariably never been outside Southern England).

Plus, the postman delivered a bunch of election pamphlets thee other day, incl uk|p and b|\|p bumf (it went straight in the bin) he was royally fucked off abt delivering such stuff & said that last year he'd pitched all the racist stuff in a ditch. This year, head office watched them a bit more closesey. At the same time, letter deliveries in the uk are fukced up, as in these bike parts i ordered last week too 8 days to arrive from gosport, yet the postman is delivering election pamphlets wtf?

― Pashmina (Pashmina), Thursday, 27 May 2004 11:18 (nineteen years ago) link

Racist can vote for it. It is a Nationist Party. Scotland for the Sots. Now it may be primarily racist against the English, but nationalist parties tend to have some sort of ethnocentric bias which is easily assiminlated into a racist mindview.

― Pete (Pete), Thursday, 27 May 2004 11:19 (nineteen years ago) link

Again, I didn't say all SNP voters were anti-English, most of them aren't, some of them certianly are.

― Dadaismus (Dada), Thursday, 27 May 2004 11:19 (nineteen years ago) link

"Don't patronise me" - biggest pot/kettle juxtaposition EVAH! How many times have you waltzed on to a thread and rubbished it?

Calum, if you're not happy about the BNP standing, vote against them and encourage others to vote against them. Stop ranting like a Daily Mail editorial.

― Markelby (Mark C), Thursday, 27 May 2004 11:20 (nineteen years ago) link

100% OTM there, barry!!

― Pashmina (Pashmina), Thursday, 27 May 2004 11:20 (nineteen years ago) link

But until North Sea Oil and the advent of Thatcher, the vast majority of SNP voters were good old fashioned Anglophobes. They weren't nicknamed the Tartan Tories for nothing.

― Dadaismus (Dada), Thursday, 27 May 2004 11:22 (nineteen years ago) link

"sots"?!

I recall reading a single article some years ago about how there was severe colour-of-skin based racism in Scotland, both in the cities and outside them. Its argument was that it wasn't spoken about because no-one wanted to make a noise about it esp since the people who might have made a noise about it are happy with the image of Scotland as a sound left-leaning country. But I've never seen anything similar since, was it a load of made-up nonsense?

― Tim (Tim), Thursday, 27 May 2004 11:23 (nineteen years ago) link

Daily Mail in anti BNP shocker?

― ken c (ken c), Thursday, 27 May 2004 11:23 (nineteen years ago) link

(though I'd say that Tory voters have invariably never been outside Southern England)

you should take a look at the stats before making such general assumptions, the north of england, particularly areas of the north west, was, and in parts still is, a bastion of support for the tories.

― Vicky (Vicky), Thursday, 27 May 2004 11:23 (nineteen years ago) link

i don't patronise people by saying "you obviously have brains" because in many cases i'm not sure that's true. i just tell them they're talking bollocks.

― Dave Stelfox (Dave Stelfox), Thursday, 27 May 2004 11:24 (nineteen years ago) link

It wasn't nonsense Tim, I certainly wasn't surprised by it in spite of the "Aren't we all great and friendly" rubbish you're bombarded with in Scotland - mega xpost!

― Dadaismus (Dada), Thursday, 27 May 2004 11:27 (nineteen years ago) link

and if you have a problem with calum's other thread, address it there rather than screwing up one that couuld grow to be interesting.

― Dave Stelfox (Dave Stelfox), Thursday, 27 May 2004 11:27 (nineteen years ago) link

i don't like the use of the term 'racism' with regards to Scottish v English and vice versa but perhaps it's pedantic

― stevem (blueski), Thursday, 27 May 2004 11:28 (nineteen years ago) link

and tim, i've found scotland to be virulently racist when i've worked there. anti-english sentiment is not racist, it's regionalist and also has some grounds thanks to the powerstructure of the past few hundred years.

― Dave Stelfox (Dave Stelfox), Thursday, 27 May 2004 11:30 (nineteen years ago) link

That's sour.

― Tim (Tim), Thursday, 27 May 2004 11:31 (nineteen years ago) link

I don't consider Glasgow and its environs to have anything to do with the rest of Scotland. Where's Robbie Lumsden when you need him?

Was just guessing as to ppl's hostility Dave. Ppl's opinions may be that they have given him enough chances. This is not my opinion, but I understand if it is the opinion of other posters.

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Thursday, 27 May 2004 11:32 (nineteen years ago) link

i've at times felt more uncomfortable being chinese in scotland than in england. but that may well be irrational, and it could be an away from home thing, esp since it's never an issue around where i live. and maybe because i mostly end up in bars with a lot of very drunk old people while in scotland.

that was to markelby, pink

it's always very difficult to take CRW seriously on ILX because of the majority of threads he has started. that's not to say this particular thread shouldn't be taken seriously.

― stevem (blueski), Thursday, 27 May 2004 11:33 (nineteen years ago) link

you can take the subject seriously without necessarily taking crw seriously. in fact the latter is impossible anyway.

haha yes and the fucked up N.E.D.s hassling you for money.

― Pashmina (Pashmina), Thursday, 27 May 2004 11:41 (nineteen years ago) link

anywy, i'm just curious why the bnp would be trying to make inroads in scotland when the country has a much more palatable "brand" of nationalism that's a lot more successful. you'd have thought this would be the last place they'd go.

― Dave Stelfox (Dave Stelfox), Thursday, 27 May 2004 11:41 (nineteen years ago) link

then again it's always been seen as an "english" nationalist party anyway, so maybe they're trying to break down borders, be inclusive!

Like I say Dave, they have a potential powerbase with Loyalists - those guys love Britain and the Queen more than you lot.

There are interesting things to be said about the BNP and politics in general. But my immediate and genuine reaction was the bitter ironing relating to Calum of all people getting upset at nasty bigoted people.

According to...ahem...a Daily Mail article by Peter Oborne - "Local opinion polls show that BNP leader Nick Griffin stands an excellent chance of unseating veteran Labour MP Margaret Hodge". Don't know where he's getting his info from though.
