Watched some of the Portsmouth staff being interviewed on Wednesday after the bad news came. One guy was going on about it as being no real surprise they`d kept govan & scotstoun as "All the directors are Scotch , innit "
Just checked the BAE site, there are 12 board members, 7 english, 3 Yanks & two who i couldn`t decide, although one looked ,with his background, as if he may well be Scottish.
Hardly ALL SCOTCH i`d say !!
I fully understand that emotions would have been running high & i feel great sympathy for all of those who will lose their jobs but this sort of statement shows up a couple of things.
1. We dont live in one big happy UK family, there are as many idiots down there who hate us as there are English haters up here. ( & they are ALL idiots)
2. There will always be some prick with a microphone/camera/notepad to give them airtime !!
