Scotland went VERY lefty quite a while ago. Many wanted to leave the UK and be their own nation; that’s how bad it is over there.
But it's hard to understand what this has to do with being left-wing. Left-wing used to mean pro-working class. Higher wages for factory workers, shorter hours, and government benefits.
Strange, how economic socialism morphed into chopping off children's body parts.
Here are some Brits on strike in the 1930s. Imagine telling them you want to chop off their son's penises.
Scots are always going on about how bloody great it is in Scotland. That is until we ask them, “Well if things are so bloody great in Scotland what the hell ere you doing down here?
The Scots and the Irish had this thing going once until the Irish gave the Scots the bagpipes. The Irish gave them to the Scots as a joke. Trouble is that the Scots took it seriously.
