An Buachaill Caol Dubh Song to represent England? (45) RE: Song to represent England? 18 Mar 20


Jim McLean and Starship, Hugh MacDiarmid made the point re. "England"="UK" almost a century ago, and I've found it universal among Scots that this conflation is disliked and indeed resented, quite legitimately. It's a bigger question than the subject of this thread, quite frankly, but at least it seems likely that, soon enough, it won't matter a tinker's curse to Scots (as distinct from North Britons) what mistakes in terminology are made in a foreign country to the South.
