so british history didnt exist by that rule from 1973 to 2020? right ho danny boy. We really are plumbing the depths of depravity in brit nat la la land now. Desperate straw-clutching noises and sounds of furious barrel-scraping coming out of the damp, grey North. no dan. Its your rule that if a country/nation/state is part of some other entity then that country and its history cease to exist. Patently absurd of course , but its your made up rule.

You've failed to give Dan a single credible response to his questions. Responding with the usual diatribe only demonstrates that you have nothing. It isn't my fault you favour the fiction.

It isn't my fault you favour the fiction. danny doesnt need you to hold his hand b4 You just concentrate on your own dribbling . crying about nazis and communists is all very well and good , but its adding nothing to the debate.

If you cant raise your game above screaming scotland and its history dont exist , we are all bwitish , and anyone who says otherwise is a nazi and a russian , then i cant spend all evening waiting for you to get to the point at some stage.
Now would you like to talk about anything...politics....history , or just carry on screaming and crying ?

Sniverling, trolling and telling lies, whilst failing to offer a single valid argument, is about as good as it gets from you.

You post a lot of hypocritical BS, Thomas. What you don't do is offer a convincing argument.

I'll add a bit, first the history should start with Picts and then the Irish invasion after the Romans left which pushed the Picts Eastwards.
You bet that will never be taught as it is divisive.
Will they cover the Norman take over as Robert the Bruce was closely related to the English King from their Norman heritage.
Next as well as covering battles against the English and undoubtedly some rough treatment will they name the big Scottish families that made a mint out of the British Empire like slaving in the West Indies.
Or is all English bashing like the Irish with Oliver Cromwell in Ireland.

I cannot stand multiquoting, it becomes disjointed and hard to follow and reply when it is split up so. But then that is maybe just me. ok sandy my apologies .Perhaps so the comments can flow more easily and answers make sense , you could dissect the pertinent paragrpahs you want to reply to into seperate posts. I often do that to save others from tedium but again maybe that is just me. I will give it a little thought.

what are you talking about sandy? Are you not aware gaelic is scotlands native language , not scots? Scots at best is a dialect of middle english , and there are many arguemnts as to wether its a language in its own right or not .
Galeic is not Scotland's native tongue, it is the language of the Irish invaders and became the language for much of Scotland but never the Eastern lowlands which were always old Scots (English, Dane and Pictish) then English (of sorts) and some Gaelic influences. I do not understand the need to be Gaelic and have the Gaelic language inserted into Central Scotland as a native language. Wallace probably spoke Norman French as did Bruce. I had to travel to Crianlarich before I heard Gaelic in the pub, closer to home I could not understand the country folk from round Dunblane but it was not Gaelic.

They spoke Scots, in whatever dialect they speak in Dunblane. Scots is not English (of sorts)! I checked online about T's statement that "Scots at best is a dialect of middle English" and it looks as though it could be the other way round: " Under the linguistic definition of elaboration, Older Scots qualifies as a language earlier than Middle English, as Older Scots was used more widely and in more consistent forms in documents slightly earlier than any other variety of Middle English."
blogs.nottingham.ac.uk/medieval/2014/02/24/older-scots-and-middle-english-mutually-comprehensible-dialects/#:~:text=Under%20the%20linguistic%20definition%20of,other%20variety%20of%20Middle%20English. Gaelic speakers migrated south and east. So, there were 'communities' of Gaels throughout central Scotland. It is said that Glasgow & Edinburgh accounts for about half of all speakers of the language. So, there is a historic link which needs to be kept alive.

One of the most interesting posts I've read today.
