But what to dress up as? What symbols to use? Wait - this should help: all things deeply connected with and seen in 2020s Scotland. A post box it is - or is does cosplaying as an umbrella scream “British”?

Weird graphic, the doubling up of Union fleg and Pound signs suggests a limited pool of symbols. Telephone box and Routemaster bus are extremely dated no?

Turning a cup of tea into three items, that smacks of a Friday afternoon decision. The more i look the worse it gets. Are umbrellas a national symbol? The angel of the North would been better inclusion. imo

 

If you ask anyone outside the UK to give you an example of a British accent, you get shown an English accent.

Rangers fans wearing England tops is just a bit more honest about that.

Why are all these bigoted c***s absolutely enormous? That boy must have his own personal postcode. Fucking hell. 

It’s the same at Ibrox. Have you seen footage from Seville this week? Some fantastic man tits on show on the majority.

That’s the Tories propping up Labour in South Lanarkshire 

My reading of the figures is the ‘coalition’ outnumber the SNP and single green without Tory support.  Happy to be corrected.

Tories voted for the Labour choice of Provost - an 'independent' who was a Lab Cllr in 2017 then left - which got Lab over the line as the Provost has a casting vote if it's ever a tie.

The Tories also voted in favour of all Labour motions on Leader, depute etc.

The other ex-SNP independent abstained on everything so without the Tory votes to get the Lab-friendly Provost elected it would have been a 28-28 tie & cutting cards to decide the Provost - and consequently who'd have formed the minority admin.

Labour very much needed the Tory votes to guarantee getting in...hence why they gave chair of Planning to a Tory Cllr

Fair enough, the report I read was obviously flawed.

It does make you think what Brittishness represents,most of that is focused on one city the central hub of Britpop.
No mentions for Bell,Baird,Fleming,Watt or Napier to name a few.
