Up here in Scotland there is an advert for Irn Bru on TV which some consider to be anti English. Have a look at www.scotsman.com/news/odd/irn-bru-ad-faces-anti-english-watchdog-probe-1-2887221I thought that the advert was quite funny and in no way did I, as an Englishman , find it offensive. It seems to me that some people go out of their way to be offended by any comments made about them and also are offended on behalf of others. |

No mate I don't find it offensive , if anything it makes the Scots seem a little silly with their preoccupation about the English |

Nothing wrong with that, some are probably picking on it because of the Scottish independence referendum thingy which due next year or year after?

Not offended in the slightest as I don't have an inferiority complex about my English ethnicity but im sure the pc brigade would be up in arms if it was the other way round

Not offensive at all, though not overly funny either.

I think that's fooking brilliant If my daughter bought that Southern Shandy and his fooking dog Wembley into my house, I'd be pissed off too   |
