its odd how some scottihs people hate english people, and yet english people dont care where you come from, why is this?

i often read angry messages by scots, welsh and irish people, whinging on about england and how awful they are, and yet 60 % of all scots live in england,similar with welsh and we( the english),just treat them as humans,

Not sure where you read this as am I Scottish and we have a good few English people who stay nearby us and they are made very welcome in local.pubs, restaurants etc.
I also stayed in England for a good part of my life and while I enjoyed it, I also encountered a degree of racism and hatred towards Scottish people but I wouldn't go about saying English people hate Scottish people as it was just a few.
I really think it works both ways and you get good and bad in most places you visit.
I also read on many occasions how welcoming Scottish people are 🤔🤔.
I see you made a similar post about American people not long ago.

Look at history for some answers. Children were separated from their Welsh-speaking families as late as the 1960s in an attempt to "civilise" them.

I think it's called loss of identity.... For many years Scotland was referred to as northern England,.

@jefferson I’m Australian. And even down here we know you Brit’s haven’t stopped ragging on about the Norman’s and Vikings.

Really? You haven't re-read what you have written there then. Not only plenty of also Irish and Welsh hatred. Notice that anywhere in Europe that had the perticular pleasure of having English football hooligans as visitors. Oh yes, perhaps you think that those Europeans actually start off hating English people too?

Oh by the way, approximately one million self-identified Scots live outside Scotland but within Britain, while about 850,000 to 900,000 people were born in Scotland and reside in England, Wales, or Northern Ireland, according to older census data. Scotland's estimated population was 5,546,900 in mid-2024, an increase of 40,900 people from the previous year.

@TheOneyouwerewarnedabout Does that mean that Australia should have an Aboriginal Royal Family?

You must be joking!

I doubt that either of your statements is true.

Scottihs? Proofreading is a thing you know.

@RedBaron He's got a lisp.
RedBaron · M
@LegendofPeza How do you know? And a lisp is a speech impediment unrelated to writing.

Why don’t you just let the OP answer for himself if he chooses?

Maybe England should invade them all again, just to show them who is the boss huh?
A sign of respect is to use capital letters. Irish, Welsh, Scottish and your own country England.
Ferise1 · 46-50, M
You invaded them
