Well... (nationalist) politics can be rather... confusing in the
United Kingdom, partly due to
a lack of a written constitution. Suffice to say, there's
a deep-seated rivalry between the Scots and the English,
possibly due to wars in the past. (And let's not get started on
[association] football.) Scotland itself also has
a separate Parliament, and there have been movements advocating for
Scottish independence.
