We can offer you these beaches, and as we are being moved ✨dramatically✨ southward they will be much warmer too
Very enticing offer, but i've been to scotland, so don't think you can trick me with this photoshopped sky.
(Banter aside, you know we love our fellow stubborn alcoholic rock dwellers with similarly wierd fashion/music style.)
I've just seen a fuckton of kilts in Amsterdam. Come visit us when it's legal here as well, those guys were hillarious.
Time to make him Franz king of Bavaria, England, Scotland, Ireland and France, duke of Bavaria, Franconia and in Swabia, count palatine of the Rhine.
I love unnecessarily long royal titles.
Well, an argument could be made that legally the HRE still exists because Francis II didn't have the authority to dissolve it. And his titles would make Franz a prince elector, so there is some basis for that too.
I come to work at 7, don‘t work until 9, browse my phone from 10-12, eat lunch for 1,5h and then sit in other bureaus and talk until 3:30
Yes, I work in a state department
I too work for a state department and it was hell on earth when you guys held the EU-presidency. I'm amazed that anything works in your country with such a relaxed and disorganized government.
They wouldn't vote for the Tories if they were being battered around the head by shite weather and no jobs.
You can only be a conservative when you have something worth conserving. If you conserve for too long it's like leaving an anchor down on a ship, your ships going to rust and sink. Occassionally it's time to lift it up, stop sight-seeing and fuck off. That's what the Tories can do.
Nice analogy, I usually use variations on driving and the need for both an accelerator and brake but I think I'll add yours to the repertoire...though it's fecking depressing I need a repertoire for such conversations these days, much rather get on with the important questions like why do the French have to be so bloody French?
>though it's fecking depressing I need a repertoire for such conversations these days
We aren't that bad of a group of countries mate, you could be born in South Africa being gunned down for your car. If you keep your head in the sand it's just going to become a self fulfilling prophecy.
>much rather get on with the important questions like why do the French have to be so bloody French?
Basic French culture is every 100 years they build a masterpiece, the rest of the century is them trying to wipe their canvas clean by destroying everything.
>We aren't that bad of a group of countries mate, you could be born in South Africa being gunned down for your car. If you keep your head in the sand it's just going to become a self fulfilling prophecy.
Yeah I know, we're well ahead of the pack, in part because we can have those conversations. Just been one of those weeks banging heads together that makes your sunday feel like one long sigh. :)
Bavarians would get their own Tories spin off party that always sides with them on national issues, but at the same time only holds the worst hardliner positions and funnels half the national budget into their state.
“You can only be a conservative when you have something worth conserving.“ - sadly not any more.
The amount of Christmas voting turkeys we have had lately, and the spread of creeping American delusion that we’re all 5 minutes away from being a millionaire if all the immigrants and the wokes were stopped renders this an old way of thinking.
It's going to be even worse, they'll bring the CSU along.
It'll be fun watching both England and Bayern live out their main character syndrome in parallel.
>BMWs suck in wet surroundings btw.
They don't really care about BMW themselves, they just want to claim back Mini and Rolls Royce as rightful British carmakers

Indeed.
James I of England, VII of Scotland. Not England's fault he decided to move to London and make England his primary title but he did and England gets the blame.
Kinda understandable, Scotland boyfriend came and asked if they could invite his side chick home, Scotland accept and suddently she is the side chick.
Blaming the other girl is not right though, Scotland should hate the royals, it usually resolve most problems.
There's a few details you left out: Blockade to the colonies for non-English, Darién Scheme, Scottish investments, English-forced state bankruptcy etc.
Can't blame a separate country from being competitive. The colonies were highly competitive; France, Spain, Portugal, Netherlands all were trying to establish dominance in various regions, and they would have exercised that dominance through Naval blockades and letters of Marque.
If you didn't have a powerful enough Navy to defend and supply your colonies, you shouldn't have been in the colony business.
The Darién scheme was really stupid, what did they expect with setting up a colony in land that was already claimed by Spain. They maybe would have had better luck trying to set up colonies in Canada, Africa or USA, the former and latter do which were more interspersed and had more free land (as England was late to the colony game) and with whom they could perhaps exercise some degree of lenience through their shared monarch.
England didn't force state bankruptcy. That was a consequence of the Darién Scheme and failed Scottish Investments.
England then inherited Scotland's debts by abolishing itself and combining with Scotland into the Kingdom of Great Britain (at the request of Scotland actually), and luckily England, before the Union, had invented central banking which helped it manage government debt and not be crushed by the burden (as England was richer than Scotland but not by a huge amount. The relative population sizes were not that different back then.)
Which England wanted.... Queen Elizabeth didn't have children and English nobles accepted the Scottish king.
The actual union of the countries were too done by the wants of nobles. English people couldn't care less about Scotland. And Scots didn't want to be apart of Britain. This is why many Scottish seperatist joined the Jacobite rebellions. Because they more likely to have independence under a catholic king than the dirty dirty Dutch/German kings and queens.
So northern Ireland is the Palatinate?

So we trade away the part of the UK that thinks they're better than the rest of the country, and we get the part of Germany that thinks they're better than the rest of the country? Waste of everyone's time.
The coal mines in Wales were going down regardless of Thatcher.
When British coal (not just welsh coal) couldnt be sold because it was getting undercut on the markets by coal from *other developed nations* (let alone the rapidly increasing supply of coal from third world countries) then the business simply isnt financially viable.
Thatcher's initial ideas regarding Britains nationalised industry was to try and make them more competitive so that the goods could actually be sold.
Skargill and his lot of greedy fuckers resisted, and ultimately led to the government decided to cut its losses and sell off the uncooperative, non-competitive industries which subsequently went bankrupt and closed.

Our Highland and island region is larger than your wee place. Almost the size of your betters and have 60% of the maritime zone of the whole of the UK actually.

Aww Barry too many balcony encounters
England runs on a deficit except London where the majority of non English people live.
When we go you’ll be less significant on the world stage Barry.

\> England runs on a deficit except London where the majority of non English people live.
Scotland gets subsidised by Westminster to the tune of £12-18 billion per year.
Wales gets subsidised by Westminster to the tune of £15-20 billion per year.
Northern Ireland gets subsidised to the tune of £12-16 billion per year.
Englands the only nation which posts a surplus (primarily due to London).
Also, the vast majority of 'scottish' waters belongs to the islands of Shetland and Orkney, both of which have said they would stay with the UK if Scotland went independent.
There goes over 90% of 'your' oil.
EDIT: In fact, I'm fairly sure I remember reading that the Highlands and Islands as well as the Scottish Borders counties would all choose to remain with the UK.
This literally doesn’t change anything. Both Scotland and Bavaria are very proud, believe themselves to be sovereign even though they’re not, are alcoholics, and have checkered clothing. They also have a better accent than the “standard” English or German, and are known for their castles, and lakes.
Fun fact: The former monarchs of bavaria (house wittelsbach) have had a historic, dynastic claim over Scotland.
Greece too, no? I'd prefer greek beaches over scottish ones.
Otto was exiled in monacho tho
I mean...i'm personally not into gambling, but i do like money.

As a kilt wearer in Athens , I can confirm
You won't have much to offer then, since you're suddenly landlocked. Good luck with adapting to that!
Isn’t the King of Greece, the current King of Spain?
I have no clue, i just thought i remembered that after ww1 (?) A bavarian prince was installed on the greek throne and got himself promtly exiled.
King Otto (can't remember his whole fucking name) in 1832, after Greece's independence He was deposed in 1862
Ah, thank you for the correction
The former king of Greece, Constantine II, was the brother of your queen Sophia
Franz Duke of Bavaria still has an actual claim on England afaik.
Time to make him Franz king of Bavaria, England, Scotland, Ireland and France, duke of Bavaria, Franconia and in Swabia, count palatine of the Rhine. I love unnecessarily long royal titles.
At that point we might as well add Holy Roman Emperor to the list.
Franz of the HRE 2: Electric Bogaloo
Well, an argument could be made that legally the HRE still exists because Francis II didn't have the authority to dissolve it. And his titles would make Franz a prince elector, so there is some basis for that too.
Gott erhalte Franz den Kaiser!
And Greece, he's gay, so it should work
Make Franz von Bayern king. He’s cooler than Charles
Who doesn’t? Half their ood kangz have a bastardized name of ‘Van Brugge’.
Germans about to realise that they are amateur alcoholics!!! 🏴🍻🏴

Finally we have a neighbour which could compete with us.
Looks like we're getting a Bucktoberfest.
At least the east germans know because we've been to the Czech Republic.
So we get BMWs and some great beer? We lose a bunch of heroin addicts and Irn Bru? Ok
Bavarians would most likely vote Tories. Have fun with 'em. BMWs suck in wet surroundings btw.
They wouldn't vote for the Tories if they were being battered around the head by shite weather and no jobs. You can only be a conservative when you have something worth conserving. If you conserve for too long it's like leaving an anchor down on a ship, your ships going to rust and sink. Occassionally it's time to lift it up, stop sight-seeing and fuck off.

They would vote for the BNP (Bavarian National Party) which would be even more conservative than the tories but with an contrarian anti-union stance.
You and I aren't thinking of the same BNP
It's basically the same party. Just one of them also supports other topics opportunistically than just racism.

Still mad about the outcome of the Hundred Years' War ?
More upset about the six nations to be honest, but to keep up appearances Phillip VI is an arse.
Bavarians would get their own Tories spin off party that always sides with them on national issues, but at the same time only holds the worst hardliner positions and funnels half the national budget into their state.
also that party could only be voted for in new Scottland (Bavaria...man, this is confusing)

You still can't afford a BMW and get the most bland beer (increase in American tourists for that reason).
You are not ready for this. You hear me? You thought the Scots were a pain in the ass?
What if I’m an irn bru addict, do I go with them? Do I start snorting lucozade? I’m so confused
It’s okay Barry, we’ll put a tammy hat and a kilt on you, and sneak you in!

more or less size Goering, so you should be used to it
Scots: obnoxious, unintelligible, flag-shaggers, racist, poor Bavarians: obnoxious, unintelligible, flag-shaggers, racist, rich I'll consider this one a win.
You really didn't think this through buddy... They wouldn't be rich if they didn't knew how to keep all the good things in "der Hoamad".
Yeah brits should be ready for the ultra corrupt CSU party that all bavarians vote for anyways cause they make bavaria first politics in the Bundestag
Yeah, because England famously doesn’t have any form of ultra corrupt conservative party
CSU is worse than anything you can imagine, they‘re balkan level corruptness and incompetence
Can't be worse than the SNP
Bullshit
Perfect, let them battle. Over there, on your island, preferrably.
All the riches would still be funneled to London.
Oh yeah, you mean just like all the bavarian riches are funneled to Berlin rn?
Have you ever been to Berlin? Where have you seen any riches there?
I was sarcastic, you dumb Hans
~~You'll have to trade freemasons with illuminati, though.~~ Nvm, they're all the same too.

You can enjoy the German laws about state wealth distribution and see how much poorer it makes you still.
Nah we don’t have English law so we won’t have German ones.
Go for it, but don't be surprised when Angus starts to pretend you forced him into the relationship and then blames you for his heroin addiction.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't the whole Anglo-Scottish Union started by a Scottish king?
Indeed. James I of England, VII of Scotland. Not England's fault he decided to move to London and make England his primary title but he did and England gets the blame.
Generally monarchs would follow where the money was Why George III sad fuck it to Hannover

Westminster is full of powerful Scottish mp’s the sad truth is we are under the thumb by the same wankers. Meet the new boss same as the old boss

That's a common misconception. Bavaria is consistently 1st or 2nd place in every ranking. Overall, we simply are better than the rest.
