I left the country when thatcher was in power. came back just before SNP won Scottish Election. I cried when when we didn't get independence. I pray the day comes before I die. I cannot believe so many people were duped by so many lies by the other parties and the media. Many of the things the opposition said have now been turned around. we are now leaving europe which we were told we could only stay in if we remained part of UK, they said There would need to be a hard border, but now were leaving apparently they say N. Ireland don't need to have one, they mocked the idea and criticised the attempts to follow a similar model to Norway, yet now that they; ve left Europe they are looking at the Norway model, .more lies, They lied to the fishermen, they lied about the oil, they lied and lied and I feel so let down. It still hurts today. If another vote comes. I hope the people of Scotland won't be fooled again.

Just to be pedantic(I know nobody likes a pedant) but at 02: 06 you mistakenly state that Northern Ireland is in Great Britain. It's true that Northern Ireland is in the United Kingdom (the sovereign state, but it is not on the island of Great Britain (which is literally just the island on which England, Scotland and Wales are found. So, the UK is made of four parts/countries/regions/whatever you want to call them, but Great Britain is something different - it's an island (the biggest island in the British Isles. Northern Ireland is one of the four parts of the UK but it's on a different island - that of course being the island of Ireland.

The older man 6 minutes in, talks of being a proud Scottish person, yet he talks of watching brave heart which is in so many parts historically incorrect and he said that William Wallace won the battle of Bannockburn. that was Robert the Bruce. On another note, I cant believe you guys came to Scotland and didn't visit my home city of Edinburgh its an amazing city with so many people from all over the world living here, definitely worth a visit: D, love your videos

02: 46. Do you feel your country is Scotland or England is no different to asking a Canadian if they feel their country is Canada or the USA, or asking a Californian if their state is California or Texas. A more realistic question which might have got them thinking is do you feel your country is Scotland or the United Kingdom? (Seeing as Scotland is in the UK. But Scotland isn't in England, so how can it be England?

Just arrived here from your part 4: Gaelic video, which I enjoyed. Here, 0: 30 'Blokes' only refers to males. I've heard quite a few Americans use the word thinking it just means anyone. Do you think your country is England, or Scotland? lol - that's a dangerous question to ask Scots in some areas Maybe Britain or Scotland? would get you in less trouble: o

04: 38 we want to have our own independence day. It ain't independent if you are ruled by Brussels mate. That's the sheer irony of it. They wanted independence from the UK, just to be ruled by the EU instead. It's not true independence if you don't make all your own laws.
