<p dir="auto">An Irishman told me this joke.  And yet, I see it supported by the scene in this fine film where Mary arrives on Scottish shores, met by nothing resembling of a royal reception.  Her brother justifies this lack of proper pomp by saying he didn't want to waste the money.  Cheap bastuhds!<br />
Great movie, great score.  Check out the John Barry instrumental track "This Way Mary."</p>

<p dir="auto">What's "Hollyrood"? And since when was "English money" spent in Scotland.<br />
Well the taxes of the whole of the UK do get spread around the isles and England is buy far the biggest population so more English money does go towards the economy.<br />
As far as I know, your politicians are desperate to keep us to leech off of our natural resource wealth<br />
Most of ''Scotland's'' oil is actually just of the coast of my home, Northumberland. Scotland needs to be part of the UK more than the UK needs Scotland, I am sorry to say.<br />
then bitch when we have the cheek to ask for less back than we pay into your Tory boys' treasury.<br />
The Tory party is not an English party, it is a British party that currently governs the United Kingdom (sadly!) and not England, which doesn't, unlike Wales and Scotland, have its own parliament. You think you have it bad? At least you get some representation unlike Northumberland which is shafted by the British government. In all fairness, the different regions of England should have their own parliaments if Wales and Scotland have them because the North-East is not adequately represented in the British parliament and neither is Cornwall or the North-West.<br />

Okay, make a sentence out of the following words: Face. Sodding. Your. Shut.</p>

<p dir="auto">Well, the Scots certainly made up for it with all the expense not spared in rebuilding Hollyrood. Then again, most of that would have been English money.</p>

<p dir="auto">Yes, I thought that was funny too, the way all the lords on horseback grunted in affirmation that it was such a waste of money to shoot off cannons and stuff. If you've got to have a stereotype for your nationality, being cheap isn't the worst in the world. It's funny.</p>
