I am English, with some Irish genes
I lived in Edinburgh in the late 60s early 70s At the time there was a big move toward independence
But never found any hatred of the English. My feeling is, as so often happens, it’s a vocal minority that is misrepresenting the silent majority
The silent majority could not care less, they want to get up, have breakfast, go to work, go for a beer, come home, have supper (and yes, maybe go dancing)
I found the exactly same when working in Belfast during “the troubles”
The only hatred I found in Scotland was in the very far North and that was toward the French
