Now, now, now.

If someone takes something from the 'British' state, it's stealing.

If the 'British' state takes something from someone else, or somewhere else, that 'something' obviously belongs to the 'British' state, regardless of who actually owned it.

Completely different.

'One Nation'? Then you have the same problem as the Conservatives, Labour, Reform and all the other divisive English political parties hell bent on imposing your 'Englishness' upon Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland against our respective cultures, identities and wills.

The UK is not one nation.

The 'Scottish' media is, to a large extent, the campaigning arm of WM rule of Scotland. Between now & May 2026 it will spin every positive story about Scotland as a negative one, and where that's impossible, will not report positives at all. Try other sources.
