I'm not anti English.
You won Annie, well done.
So you can`t provide a link.

Please by all means give us the proof that the snp have given the impression the Scots hate the English ... until then shut up cause ahm sick to the back teeth of hearing it ... it's an old argument that's still awaiting proof
So put up or shut up
That's unnecessarily rude. I haven't heard that argument particularly before – it's just the general impression I get from listening to the way the SNP leaders speak. I'm sorry if you can't see that…0 -
Nothing to do with you not liking foreigners or the SNP not liking the English. Of course not - it's all about democracy.
What are you talking about? I'm not sure what you are even getting at here. I'm of 'foreign' origin myself – and indeed, have even had the pleasure of being called a 'bloody foreigner' a couple of times (which just made me laugh since I have no problem with being 'foreign'). I have 'foreign' friends and have lived among 'foreigners' all my life. And I don't understand your comment about 'democracy', either.0 -

And ofcourse accusing people of being anti English isn't rude ... no not at all ... it's an every day occurrence really so why make all the issue eh
So give us a general impression piece then ? Proof that you get the general impression from the SNP that they hate the English
It is curious to find out many seem to watch the SNP though . Obviously no one would be daft enough to believe what the MSM manipulates ... I'm sure your proof will be straight from their mouths0 -

OK. I should've been more specific (although I'm sure it wasn't required). The SNP feel the same way about the English as you do about Germans.0 -
anyone any thoughts on how house prices will/might be affected in Scotland after the EU referendum result?
same as everywhere else = uncertainty is bad but nobody knows?0 -

I think any Scot would find it diificult to deny that there`s at least a widespread antipathy felt toward the English. The SNP do cultivate that antipathy rather well too.“Britain- A friend to all, beholden to none”. 🇬🇧0
