What ENGLISH People REALLY Think About the SCOTTISH | Easy English 160 

As an English bloke from Manchester I have nothing but love for our Scottish neighbours. I've been to Scotland many times especially the western Isles I have always been made to feel welcome. The people are always warm and friendly and I have not a bad word to say about them. ❤ ❤

As a Kurd I love Scottish people🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿❤️ they are all brilliant

Should be retitled what southern middle class English think of the Scottish.

I"m from the South of England and have visited Scotland many times! Scottish people are great, just don't talk about politics!

It’s insane to me that so many of them have never been to Scotland. It’s so close!

I am Spanish- Peruvian. I have been living in Scotland for 8 years. Scottish people are lovely and very welcome. In my opinion, the more peculiar or characteristic thing of Scottish people is the Scottish English accent. That's why in my experience have been very difficult to progress in my comunication. By the way, I loved this video, and it has been nice hearing people talking about different subjects. I have learned a lot of vocabulary. I will follow up now!

The interviews like these is the better way to make videos which can attract the public atentión.

The ignorance is phenomenal and the understanding of Nicola Sturgeon is dangerous, showing the power of the media and their agenda.

Again and again it's weird to me (a German) to see British people who have never been to a particular part or in general other parts of the UK. I have been to different parts like Edinburgh, York, Hadrian's Wall, Lake District for a day, Birmingham, Bristol, Colchester, Brighton and a little tour around Wales with Cardiff, Swansea, Abergavenny, Barminster, Criccieth, Llangollen and the Snowdon (Yr Wyddfa, as I should say now). How come people I met in the past 30+ years who were British have not been around like that. I feel bad for not having been to Liverpool, Manchester, Newcastle, Cornwall, any of the islands, or the Highlands or Northern Ireland yet but I'm just German/an anglophile visitor. They are Brits born and bred and sometimes have seen less than me. That is so weird. When I was little my parents took me and my brother to different places in Germany so that we know what our country looks like in different regions. And what we didn't manage to see then, I went to see later. There are still towns and cities I haven't seen, but at least I've been to every region. I can't understand this attitude of "no, sadly I've never been there (but I am also not really intererested in changing that)" and the speaker is around 60 - 65 years old. What are they doing with their lives?

mcLeods are from the Isle of Lewis and the Isle of Skye.

I love being Scottish! And it's a myth that we all hate the English - I married one! You are all most welcome in the friendliest country in the world. As well as that, our culture is celebrated and very widely known all over the word. Come to Scotland!

From Scotland, I feel that its the guttural way of speaking that comes over as sounding harsh or aggressive. We are actually a really friendly bunch.

Thank you i follows you from Egypt ❤

Scotland is British the flag has scotland flag in it so this doesn't make sense

I first started to be a regular with Easy German some years ago , which I now visit every week to listen to their Podcast .I have ventured here just out of curiosity and it turns out to be real good. I'm due in Scotland next august... Would be also interesting to get to know what the scots really think about the English .

Haha, Billy Colony. So well informed.

If we think of the huge amount of actors and actresses that are Scottish and are incredibly good looking, you would think they are all artistic and extremely good looking! I know that can’t be 100% but sure seems like that! I am glad Scotland is now becoming popular, maybe because of Outlander? ! ? Anyway, they have the best English accent, in my opinion!

Is it really correct to say "You'll get to join myself"?

You should listen to a band called The Haivers and the song called ( Scotland's Fire ) it gives you an insight into what Scotland has given the world with everyday life

i am english my grandad was from glasgow and my other grandad was irish

Typical southern English arrogance, to be fair they’d wouldn’t know much about the North of England!

Scotland is the most beautiful country on earth, but I will always be British first. I like the mix of Wales, England, Scotland and NI. I hate any form of Nationalism as along with religion it has caused so many wars in the past and in the present. Lang may yer lum reek 👍

"That's Billy Colony!"

We are of course proud Scots. like all nationalities, But be sure we love our English neighbours, we have common bonds & we Scots would always defend England in times of need. 💙♥

Lot of drunks in Canada, too.

It would be more interesting to hear what Scots think about the English!!!!!!!!

They're the best! :) (As a Scot myself, haha)! ;)

Albert Einstein said to me…James Clerk Maxwell 👍 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿😎

Is the english prime minister still winston Churchill? Along with their monarch william the 2nd, the English are so knowledgeable about other cultures. But then again thats the welsh for your.

I admit. I met a Scottish girl at my college. Nice girl. Amazing red hair

Purple Burglar Alarm

I’m Scottish and I’m aggressive, ginger and an alcoholic. There’s no smoke without fire. Stay away you will hate it here.

😊

Can I ask English people what are their thoughts of N. Ireland??

The guy that said he had scot holding him by his tie tryin to throttle him and two of his mates got rid of didn't happen. The Scottish guy battered all 3 of them singlehandedly

scouser here...never met a scot I didn't like.....donno what these mad southerners are on about..."avoid people from Glasgow' ha ha...I actively seek them out top, top people...nothing but luv from me

There are a lot of ironies regarding the English stereotypical view of Scottish people, and make no mistake those stereotypical views are ages old and mostly meant to be derogatory. (1) Scotland is full of kilt wearers - The irony of this statement is that a brand new kilt package can cost anywhere between £295 and upwards of £1000. It is highly unlikely that all Scots are walking around in this highly expensive gear, and it is questionable just how many English people that make this claim could themselves afford a brand new kilt package. (2) All Scots eat Haggis - The irony of this statement is that a lot of Scots one day of each year actually do celebrate Burns night by having a Burns Supper. A Burns Supper is traditionally served up with a dram of Scotch Whisky, or even Whisky added to the Haggis as a Whisky sauce part of the cooking. Now the cheapest bottle of Scotch Whisky you will find from Asda comes in at around £7 for a bottle of McKendrick's, and that is just for a 70cl bottle. It is highly unlikely that all Scots are having Burns Suppers everyday, and it is questionable just how many English people could afford to celebrate Burns night on a daily basis. (3) Scots call eachother Jimmy - The irony of this statement is that it is totally untrue. The Scottish variant for the Hebrew name James, is in fact Jamie, and Jimmy is actually the English variant. It is possible that the misconception arose from the fact that Scots may have at one time greeted English people by referring to them as Jimmy, and this would be because so many English people were called Jimmy. Even the most famous people in Britain from recent times named Jimmy are English in origins. Jimmy Savile, Jimmy Greaves, just to name two. The list goes on. (4) All Scots go around saying "Och Aye the Noo". - The irony of this statement is that there are many English areas where people really do go around over using phrases which can be used to identify them, such as the Liverpudlian "aright la", or the Geordie "way I mon", or the Yorkshire "get t brew on" or any one of many cockney rhyming slang, but it quite simply is not true that any Scot has ever used the phrase "och aye the noo". In fact, the only people ever in this world to use the phrase "och aye the noo" are English people when mocking the Scots. (5) All Scots play bagpipes - The irony of this statement is that bagpipes are amongst the most expensive musical instruments you could possibly find. A brand new set of bagpipes would cost you anywhere between £600 and £8000. It is highly unlikely that all Scots own a set of Bagpipes, and it is questionable whether or not a set of Bagpipes is an item which many English people could afford to keep in their bedrooms. (6) Scotland is full of degeneratives that all eat deep fried mars bars and drink Buckfast. - The irony of this statement is that it mostly refers to the people of Scotland's most poverty stricken and deprived areas. Now a set of four mars bars costs £1.65 at Asda, and the cheapest bottle of Buckfast you will find online is a 75cl bottle at £7.50. Now not only are those lowest denomination of Scots spending £1.65 for four mars bars, but in addition to this they are actually frying them, which has the added cost of purchasing vegetable oil. The cheapest bottle of vegetable oil is £1.75 at Asda. Now, even English people will have to admit that this must just be something those poverty stricken Scots are eating and drinking as snacks, as doctors and scientists would agree that it would not be possible for them to only live on deep fried mars bars and buckfast. So this is something those Scots are enjoying between meals. So, here again, it is highly unlikely that Scotland's lowest denomination of citizens are living such a luxurious lifestyle that they are able to afford such luxurious snacks on a daily basis. It is also highly questionable whether or not most English people that are from council estates could afford to snack like this on a daily basis. As a lot of Scots will be able to attest, the first thing that is likely to happen when they get off a train at Liverpool Lime Street or Manchester Piccadilly, is that they are liable to be approached by a Liverpudlian/Scouser/Scally or Mancunian/Manc asking them if they have a spare ciggy, before proceeding to ask them for a light. I am sure many English people can also attest that this claim is factually true. This gives one the impression that those council estate types from Liverpool and Manchester "are not" feasting on deep fried Mars bars in between main courses, and "are not" washing it down with Buckfast on a daily basis. (6) All Scots are tight. - The irony of this is what? They spend up to £1000 on kilts, They wash down Haggis with Scotch Whisky every night, They all have bagpipes worth upto £8000 in their bedrooms, and even their poorest citizens add additional ingredients to Mars bars, washed down with Buckfast on a daily basis between meals, and they are told they are tight if they do not give English people a ciggy or a light? Do English people realise based upon their own stereotypical views of Scots, just how much Scots must be puting in to society in the way of tax?

Just tell them they can drink the water straight from the tap.

They already use scottish inventions, that improved everyone's lives.

I am scottish wee aint no different now

Yogi Baird 🤣

"They're all gingers" 😂

A man from Glasgow didn't walk into a bar because he was already drunk at the time. ha, ha, ha, ha, hilarious, no not really.

If you want to know what the English feel about the Scots then try spending the Scottish notes in England....they think it's mickey mouse money or something.

As a Scottish person The English aren’t all bad but there are some who really piss me off I have English friends I don’t mind the country I just hate how they in the past took over Northern Ireland and Scotland and after they let India and America go they kept us, the brexit vote was rigged because of the amount of English people in comparison to us scots and it may seem like the votes are from Scotland but the votes for leaving the eu were English people in scotland

Scotland is too big to be labelled as one. East is nothing like west and highlanders nothing like lowlanders......and Dundee is an accent and attitude all by itself.

scottland spawned ACDC and thats all you need to know

In your heading, who are "The Brits"?

I love Scottish people and their accent. I’m an Englishman but I prefer to say British because we are all alike.

The stereotypes are crazy

Do you have desires to go to Scotland? 🤣🤣🤣

WE WANT INDEPENDENCE AND ARE A COUNTRY, NOT A COLOMY !!!! FREEDOM !!! INDEPENDENCE FOR SCOTLAND NOW !!! ARE YOU YES YET ? IF NOT, WHY NOT ? !!!!

What alot of pish 😂😂

Scottish people are Brits

A patronising & derogatory post

Women kept hidden? What?!

Imagine having a youtube channel where you ask "Brits" questions But you don't even know who the British are. Clue Scotland is also part of Great Britain 🇬🇧

But the Scots are brittish so you should really be asking English, Welsh , Northern Irish and Scottish about the Scottish

Mate you should say what the English people think of Scotland not what brits think of the Scotts. The Scotts are Brits as well mate🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

No wonder the puritans left for the new world. The narcissism is insane for England 😂

Scottish are British too fuck sake

Tf you mean brits on the Scottish, the Scots are British and the bloody English aren't, they're germanic. Sais conts

"Brits on the Scottish", you are just showing outstanding ignorance here. The scots are Brits, as Britain reffers to the island. You're thumbnail requires changing.

We the scots are very friendly except the younger idiots who followed nicola sturgeon. The majority of scots are not interested in independence. This is a small island and we need to stick together. I love the rest of the country and go to england quite often.

Okay! Not a good start..."what the British people think of the Scots". I thought we were British?! (After all we made Britian!) Do you mean English (as your title says)? This video just highlights why a lot of Scottish folk want to be independent. Billy Connolly - anywhere else in the world he is an instantly recognisable figure - everywhere except it seems in England, really shocking. Show a picture of the very unfunny Michael McIntyre and they would pick it up straight away. Perhaps this shows a mental bias against the Scots by the English. It is not as if Billy Connolly was an obscure person!

Also why did you show Tilda Swinton she isn't Scottish 😅

That old man that said avoid people from glasgow can i tell you sir the glasgow people whould rather help you than do anything to harm or hinder you thats a fact thats known all around the world 😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮
