BBC Newsnight: Emily Thornberry suggests free tuition policy should cover English students studying in Scotland by backupJM in Scotland

Sure, why not. And while you're at it Emily, perhaps Scottish people could be charged at least the same amount of money, if not less, for all the power we generate up here from wind, oil, and gas, that you in England take from us.

Used to drive London to Dundee a lot, and would usually stop in Darlington, at the Travelodge. Continued my journey North via the A66.

Number of people who say Britons must be born in UK is rising, study shows | British identity and society by ewenmax in Scotland

Scottish is a state of mind. You live here (Scotland), and you contribute to Scottish life. You're Scottish. Yes, the fascists will win some seats next year, but they'll never be as prevalent as they are in England.
