Given the number of Scots in the previous cabinet, I more often heard complainst from English people that we were being ruled by Scotland. Now, however, we’re all being ruled by Eton.
Right, from Smith to Brown (at the very least), Labor was really the Scottish Party.
On a semi-related note, here’s a flyer that I found in the gents toilets (because I’m classy like that) in the Filmhouse Cinema in Edinburgh about a month ago. I couldn’t resist picking it up to mock at leisure. I think it provides a decent insight into the level that some of the “foreign rule” types are operating at.
Quoth samjones:
A bit of an aside, but could you be a little more clear about which tri-state area you’re referring to? Every place in the US aside from Alaska, Hawaii, and the Four Corners region is part of an area the locals refer to as the “tri-state area”. I presume you don’t mean Montana-Idaho-Wyoming.
Maine.
Not Maine.
Maine-New Hampshire-Massachusetts is a tri state area
Only to the New Hampshirites.
Maine only has a bi-state area.

Do you have any actual polling that has been done in which secession from the United States has been supported by a majority of respondents?
Here’s a poll from 2008, although it’s short and couched in hypotheticals. Certainly no majority, but a larger minority than I would have expected.
Wait, don’t tell me: if it is not Scottish and not crap, it is not truly not Scottish, right?
