I struggle to understand the Scots. Can someone help me out?
 
I am not from the UK and I struggle to understand the Scots.

Broadly speaking, what is their mentality? They seem to want to hang onto England only on the condition that England hangs onto Brussels.

I thought this was the land of Braveheart? :conf:

Well the whole country is run by the Scottish Nationalist Party which agender is to make Scotland independent so it's basically a Scottish UKIP but they want to be independent from the UK but I don't think Scottish people actually understand that. Good luck to them I suppose. I was born in Scotland so I hope they don't deport me back there :joker:

Pack your bags and move there so you can have first hand experience?

No, I think it would be easier to ask from the comfort of my home. :hee:

You are not "struggling to understand the scots"

You are generalising based on stereotype and misinformation.

Quite the leap

You're all mean misers.

Or is that the Jews...?

Either way, one of us should have some savings.

It is long thought that it is similar to that of the North Korean language

55% of Scots are English people in disguise.

That's all you need to know :suspect:

I'm not mean, I'm just careful.

Is that right that you once dropped a pound coin, bent down to pick it up and it hit you in the back of the neck?

the number of scots who voted for Leave was pretty much identical to the number of Scots who voted SNP at the last election!

Livia 25-06-2016 01:30 PM
