Scotland and Wales: The Pretend UK Celtic Nations Anti-Racism Blog

                         How do we explain someone like Andy? Well, he likes the Celtic myth (a 1707 linguistic label from Welsh Nationalist Edward Lhuyd - not an ancient UK ethnicity) and all things 'saintly' and exclusive about three of the UK countries. Look after the Scots, Welsh and Northern Irish (don't mention Darien, disproportionate activity by the Scots in the British Empire, the partitioning of Ireland by a Welsh PM with avid backing of Protestant Scots, the invention of the Poll Tax by Scotsman Douglas Mason and its implementation there in 1989 by its own Secretary of State, Wales as separate factions and kingdoms, not an ancient, unified nation) and pander to their one-side retellings of history. And as for the far more ethnically diverse England? Stuff that! That is what we know. One-sided UK 'history' (three saintly countries, one demonic) obviously helped shape Andy Burnham's barely concealed dislike of Eng...

                                   King Charles cares passionately about the five million people in Scotland, who, of course, deserve to keep their devolved taxes, benefit from the unfair Barnett Formula out of English taxes (free prescriptions for millionaires and free tuition fees, etc), and so on. But the 57 million people living in England? Not so you'd notice. We are simply the disadvantaged, demonized rump of the so-called UK... A bunch of mugs... So, King Charles popped off to America and made Scotland his priority. Yep, he asked President Trump, as a special favour, to drop tariffs on Scotch whiskey. Great. Then he nips back to England and continues to ignore the fact that the Barnett Formula awards higher block grants to Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, allowing free prescriptions for millionaires in those countries, while the most ethnically diverse country, England, which has no nat...

The Houses of Parliament - home of the so-called 'UK' Parliament - which discriminates against its largest, most ethnically diverse country, England, in favour of white tribal myths in Scotland and Wales. The interests of fifty six million people versus the privileges of eight? No contest. The Parliamentary hogs from all corners of the UK will never initiate just change, and will continue to demonize England - for as long as they can. The situation is not sustainable in the long term as more and more people in England, of all ethnicities, are beginning to wake up to the facts. Before anybody jumps to conclusions, I am advocating for needs based care across the UK, and equal democratic representation for England. Right Wing or Left Wing nowadays seem to be all trendy agendas and quite a lot of smoke and mirrors. This article is about fact, modernity and fairness for all. One of the biggest causes of artificial divisions between the English, Scots and Welsh is the use of the word...
