Trouble is Governments need their compatriots to be resident and pay tax for the common good and some folks don't see it quite like that.

Laugh at them, yes I'd say it's bullying, it's probably why Alec is so insecure

Jimi Jimi, you're confusing facts with opinions, not for the first time either. Plenty of the English press print arguments from both sides, something the sites you use would never ever do.

Och,we won the World Cup in 1967 at Wembuleeeee,3-2 going on 23-2.

So you just provide a weblink rather than an actual link to what you apparently quoted?
Sorry but that site is full of nonsense stories and opinions rather than actual facts.
Also I have nver heard of the EBC, is this a new thing we have all missed?
Telling it like it is?? Right that would be all the businesses and experts then rather than the guff that spouts from Salmond and his cohorts in the SNP, who just claim its bullying and spin

Sorry Stephen,you've been brainwashed,it can happen tae anyone.
For as far back as I can remember,Scottish viewers have been robbed,er,I mean short changed by the EBC,we get very little in return for paying the same amount of license fee as the rest of the UK does,a bit like oil come tae think about it.

Thank you for confirming what I posted...
Strange how you focus/fixate on the one International Scotland won in 10 years against England - one could hypothesise you were cherry-picking one thing out of many to perhaps paint a false picture.......
btw, 'Unofficial World Cup'???? So if the Nats don't win the independence Referendum, but gain a majority in the next Scottish Elections, will they have unofficially won the Referendum????

No one has been brainwashed here. I am 100% Scottish and proud to be so, but in the real world an independant Scotland would just not work. We are better together as one nation sharing and helping each other out.
As for you claims of getting little in return, are you aware that MANY of the BBCs gameshows and comedy shows such as Mrs Browns Boys are actually filmed in Glasgow at the BBC studios there. There is also plenty of Scottish stuff made by the BBC. Scottish comedy is one example of great output from the BBC.
However yet again you don't appear to live in the real world.

One program you managed tae tell me about,can you make it tae ten?
Look at the amount of rubbish the EBC makes,the only two decent program's they do make are MOTD and Question Time,and the MOTD presenters are obscenely overpaid for what they do in such short time.
