Splitting the UK...??
Apparently half the Scots, and 3 out of 5 English people want to split the United Kingdom into its respective countries......
What do you think??
I think we should, I hate being classed as British all the time, when I'm clearly English!!
Answers:
I don't think it will happen as there are plenty of people who don't want to split. if you don't consider yourself as British then just call yourself English. its not rocket science!!!
But when you think of our country as great and all the great things we have done in the past that make you proud etc don't you realise that some of those people are not English but part of great Britain?
As i cant talk to you face to face I'm not sure if your pro English or anti every other country.. As for me I'm pro English and feel proud of being English and find it stupid that people complain when we want to fly the st Georges cross and find it offencive but I'm also proud of great Britain as we have a great heritage that other countries don't have.
Hello again. As you have updated your points i have to agree with you as im fed up with this crappy PC views all the time and i think its making our country go down hill. what other country does not allow people to show there flag because it might offend other countries. for example can you imagine pakistan asking people in there country to take down a flag because it might offend an Englishman.. NO is the answer. And i always fill in forms that i am English. It just does not bother me about the british thing.. But good question by the way and thanks for updating to give me more info. up the Gunners but shame we cant beat Bolton again.
you are an idiot?
yes it is now confirmed. thanks!
i consider myself multicultural not a racist bigot but you carry on. why do you feel the need to belong to a certian group?
ohh and btw what do you do with someone who is half scottish and half english?
Yeah that's all well and good but what would you do with the other people that didn't fit into those three pieces of land?
Okay, okay, but how would you do that, would you send them a letter saying "Excuse me, would you mind awfully pissing back off to where your descendants came from, actually I'm not asking I'm telling" Sounds a bit like a German regime from not too long ago eh?
yeah im with you on that one
Its about time they realised that us scousers need our own nation, rather than being ruled by the southern pansies.
I think Scottland and those other countries you said should be seperate countries.
I agree, as a Scot is clear to me that the union isn't delivering for us. From watching the London based media, i can see that its not working out for the English either. Lets all of us embrace our true nationalities, Scottish, English or welsh and abandon this idea of "britishness".
Only if we can cut the South West off too!
It's not called the West Country for nothing!
Oh my dear god you are obviously an extremely ignorant soul and I hope that one day someone enlightens you. either that or someone stops you from talking
As for your original question. why?! Don't you think there are some far more important issues for our government to deal with?
I wasn't asking why you were asking the question. I was asking why we should put resources into splitting the UK when we should be concentrating on things like our foreign policies and education.
I think you'd be interested to hear that your taxes are paying for certain British companies 2 build things like dams which are forcing people out of their homes. Then they come here and aren't welcome. maybe you should ask your mp why this is rather than picking on people who have no choice but to emigrate from their homes.
I also am English, but we are the BRITISH ISLES including the CHANNEL ISLANDS, that makes me BRITISH /ENGLISH to split these countries will result in the ultimate break up of the Kingdom, so I am against it completely,and we are not three pieces of land we are four pieces of land including NORTHERN IRELAND,when we go to war we go as one NATION not four separate nations.
well, we can cut it off thru the tyne estuary, and end up on the west coast.
it'd make a fortune for shipping. and England would gain some of scotland, and lose some of northumberland.
there was a band called MAN, their first album showed them pushing wales away from teh mainland.
and as to mixed ancestry, im English, Irish Scots, and we originally left wales in 6AD. well hang draw and quarter me.
and yes, I'm ENGLISH. Great britain is just a sociopolitical conglomeration for teh sake of taxation and central government.
As a good old gooner i'm amazed at your outburst.
Personally i don't care but if we get rid of everybody who doesn't fit, where would Arsenal get their players from, or would the foreign players get a dispensation.
The sooner Scotland gets full independance, the better
I'd also prefer to be classed English
our "politically correct" government wont let it happen though
the ST.Georges flag thing isn't a matter of Britishness that's again our government and foreigners
