At school history was never my subject, mainly because when it came to exams it was all about dates! [eg. 1066] and mainly English ones with the odd Scottish one thrown in for good measure or to show us who our masters are!!.
For some odd reason my brain is not hard wired to remember number sequences, be it dates or phone numbers.
But then somewhere deep down in my psyche I maybe knew it was a load of bollucks anyway when learning about Scotland😂
All History books when I was at school and many since should be in the FICTION section of any library, not the Historical section!
When the SNP came into power they promised that Scottish History would now be taught in Scottish schools, the Tories nearly had a fit, no wonder! But did it ever happen?
I am told it didn’t. Why, if true did it not happen? Perhaps because our Scottish politicians realised it would also impact greatly on their own lives and how Holyrood should be run!
Recently the ISP, [ Independence for Scotland Party]
Tried to get permission for a Petition to not allow the Stone of Destiny to be taken down to London for the King’s Coronation.
They were of course refused, the reasons given are on their website but basically it proved once and for all that, our Scottish Politicians are ALL Unionists at heart and bow the knee to Westminster and the King. Even they deny their own history and are happy to take the King’s shilling!
So, be prepared to re-learn your history, your true history which in turn gives YOU the opportunity to change things.
