Anyway it's all water under the bridge to be honest, none of us can change the past.

Well I certainly believe it was England that was more often in the wrong, a quick reading of history seems to show this, although the rest were far from blameless. But it something which doesn't interest me.

It's my personal opinion that the backlash experienced by Scots at the moment is thanks to the goading of certain folk north of the border fueled by idiots like Mel Gibson.

The general gist of his film was correct. An English King did in fact decide to conquer the Scots. Gibson is not an idiot due to that. But I don't think it matters today. I think whatever the reason this "backlash" is disgusting and disturbing.
I completely accept modern archeology which even seems to suggest there is little racial difference between English and the "Celts".
