Lisa Nandy has just ensured her party will never win in Scotland again, she compared Scotland the oldest nation state in Europe with its own constitution, its own crown, its monarchy, its own law and national football team to Catalonia a region in Spain. @TheBritishGamer β€πŸ”‘ (Meh)

Now they gave up their titles

Whilst they got the huge wedding

@D7V1D I mean it was a Principality of Aragon and identifies more with the old Kingdom of Aragon than the modern Kingdom of Spain

Spain is mainly controlled by the Kingdoms of Castille y Leon

Aragon joined via a marriage

And even then they were more like two seperate Kingdoms ruled by one Monarch

The Catalan counties were always given a devolved status by Aragon

GG @D7V1D, you just advanced to level 2!

Comparing a former principality of a now legally extinct kingdom to Scotland the oldest kingdom in Europe is an absurdity. @TheBritishGamer β€πŸ”‘ (Meh)

@D7V1D Extinct in name only. The name "Kingdom of Spain" is misleading. Aragon is much more different than Castille or Lyon or any of the other Kingdoms

Spain just doesn't like the idea of devolved Kingdoms

Well, more like Franco was super anti-devolution

And it stuck

Great Britain is the united kingdom of the Kingdoms of Scotland and England, both kingdoms still have legal status and both kingdoms are superior in rank to the united kingdom that is Great Britain. Spain is one single kingdom. Castille was abolished into four regions. Aragon had a similar fate.

Spain acts like it's one Kingdom. It really shouldn't be when you look at it in detail

It's why they've had so many problems with Basque and CataluΓ±a

Great Britain and Spain should adopt federal systems.

Spain should at least try to get a system like the UK as a first step and then go down the path of federalisarion

But yeah

It should be a federal system

Unlike the Castillians who annihilated their kingdom into several regions for the integrity of Spain, the English refuse to destroy their kingdom into nine regional assemblies.

Cornish Nationalism is so adorable

They're so small but proud

@TheBritishGamer β€πŸ”‘ (Meh) English nationalism is more adorable, the English think because they are a big fish in the British pond they think they are a big fish in the European pond too and a even bigger fish in the global pond. Oh bless them, so small but proud.

Eh, English Nationalism is more embarrassing to watch

You see, once it gets to a certain size, it's not really adorable anymore

It's just ugly

2020-01-19 01:07:19 UTC  

@TheBritishGamer β€πŸ”‘ (Meh) The problem is the English think their country is more important than what it actually is, England is essentially a province, a big province in British terms but a small province in European terms and a very tiny province in Global terms.

I wouldn't mind England and Scotland forming a GB Football team

Mainly because I want Robertson playing as a LB for us

You guys have better managers as well

Yes, I'm a Liverpool fan
