Do you count those Scots fighting in WW1 under UK flag traitors? You know, the ones that sacrificed their lives in order you could call them lilly livered and untrustworthy. Must be difficult for you hating the majority of Scotland's population. I can tell you about one young Scot who had fought in that war, at age eighteen he was called up to the Gordon Highlanders to fight in that war. His conscription cost him the couple of years he had served as an apprentice blacksmith, the next two years saw him serving in trenches and using his athletic abilities to run with messages between trenches he also learned how to shoot, stab with a bayonet and other methods of killing young Germans just like himself. When the war was over and he applied for positions he was advised that he was unskilled labor. He did not respond as I would have, I am skilled if you want messages delivered under gunfire I am skilled at that, and I am also very good at killing. He went through his life with the shame to him of being called unskilled when he knew he would have been good at his trade if left at it. When I wanted to go to the army he was against it, his directions to me were from the age of four you are gong to be a policeman. House, uniform, good pay and pension plan and no apprenticeship, and you will never be demeaned as unskilled. That was my Dad a proud Scot who bravely served his Country and was abandoned by that self same country. He was the proudest man in the world when I joined the Edinburgh City Police, and I hope he saw my conclusion, because I supplied for him the pride he lost in the service of his country Scotland 1916, to 1918.

J.T.F.Robertson Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 (edited) It's always been for the benefit of the few and to the great detriment of the many. No matter the nationality. Religion, nationalism, all bollox when carried to the extreme, probably even long before then. We're on this infinitesimal speck of dust yet still somehow veer toward the belief some miniscule part of it is "superior" to the other and worth slaughtering each other over. Our existence is finite enough, ffs! Edited June 4, 2022 by J.T.F.Robertson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The hat is an interesting one. We were talking at the pub yesterday about what an Australian republic would be like. Given the melting pot of cultures here, we settled on whoever gets drawn to do their stint has to dress and behave like the accepted stereotype of their background. If it was me, I'd have to wear a kilt all the time, a true blue Aussie would be in a singlet and thongs (flip flops) with an akubra. It doesn't need to be an ethnic thing, we could have a head of state in drag etc! If the crown and robes are your thing, bash on, I like the idea of our head of state dressing in Hearts gear, full kit w@nker style though.

Sharpie Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 With regard to the relationship betweenWilliamand Harry, I( don't know if there is a problem but as with the Queen and her sister Margaret their lives were totally different and Margaret often had a back seat to the soon to be her Princess sisters future life. While the Queen to be was opening flower shows and other duties, Margaret was reputed to be living it up in night clubs with an assortment of male escorts. There were comments made about the lack of relationship between the sisters, but an exigency of upcoming duty made them totally different as with the brothers. Life can be strange my father was the Janitor,handyman, chauffeur at St Trineans School in Park Road. Miss Lee the owner the sister of Hearts doctor Dr Lee, insisted that my father send his daughter to a fee paying Girls School, of course not hers. Along came me, the son four years younger than the daughter, raised as a second child of a working class family no uniforms or fees, just a boy often dressed in his sisters hand me downs, with shoes two sizes too big stuffed with paper to fit, but my sister loved me with no limits, and I loved her deeply, and we stayed that way until her death in her eighties. So sometimes what could be the public view was not the factual situation, I suspect with these lads the situation is similar to how mine was, but it did not affect our sibling relationships, and I done o.k without public school education, and my sister married a printer and the moved to America, and we all lived happy ever after.
