This comment is very offensive to those who have Scottish relatives who fought in World Wars l and ll.

You completely ignore the heroism of our grandfathers' generation who volunteered to save Britain from the jackboots of the Nazis. 27% of Scottish men fought in the wars to preserve Britain.

Please think before posting such piffle.

Yes, I'm afraid those who think they are clever, are not so clever sometimes.

I was thinking of the millions of other fathers and grandfathers, and their heroism, many of whom died trying to hold back the expansion of British imperialism. But maybe they don't count because they were Africans and Asians in the main?

This thread has degenerated into less than civil discussion because of personal agendas being promoted that have little or nothing to do with the subject at hand.

If this continues, some of you will be taking temporary or permanent leaves of absence from this board.

I kid you not.
