the s.n.p. is not anti english or racist. if you like i could take you to local our councilor or mp. or go to a s.n.p. local meeting. or check the s.n.p. web site Scottish National Party (SNP) and see if there is any racist rhetoric there. to compare the s.n.p to the b.n.p is at best an outright insult
Hey, I'm pretty sure that the BNP doesn't have any racist rhetoric on its website either.
But as they always say - when you listen to the people that vote for the BNP & SNP -it's a different matter.
I'd be more convinced if Salmond told anti English voters to F8ck off, & I'd also be more impressed if the Scots didn't whine so in the Scottish press & message boards about Westminster, especially as they did for 13 years when Scots ruled the roost in London, as if it were the English making policy.
Remember, the Act of Union was a direct consequence of the Scots getting rid of their own Stuart king.
Any view of the Celtic/ Rangers debacle shows that prejudice is alive & kicking hard in Glasgow at least.
Let's just have a vote & get it over with - you either want out, or you don't.
