Towards other peoples, yeah, but for their own citizens, it was a lot better than France, Spain, Portugal, Sweden, Germany, Russia, Austria, Ottomans...fuck I forgot about the Dutch okay they were better at democracy and tolerance. But after them, it's England.

Scotland have a more representative democracy, and there are less race hate crimes here. How are we not more tolerant?

proof of less race hate crimes.

In total 3,785 charges relating to race crime were reported in 2014-15 [in Scotland]

42,930 (82%) were race hate crimes[in England and Wales]

Now, Scotland's population:

Statistics published by the National Records of Scotland (NRS) showed that the estimated population of Scotland was 5,347,600 in mid-2014.

3,785 / 5,347,600 * 100 = 0.070779 % - ish

Now, English + Welsh population:

The estimated population of England now stands at 53.5 million, 5.3 million in Scotland, 3.1 million in Wales [in 2014]

53,500,000 + 3,100,000 = 56,600,000

42,930 / 56,600,000 * 100 = 0.075848 % - ish

As a result of this study we can conclude that in England and Wales, there is 0.005% more racial hate crime, which means that ultimately Scotland is a more tolerant place to live in. :)

As for the representative democracy.

In Scotland, the SNP won 59 of the 73 constituencies. In a UK election that would be enough for an outright majority.

However in Scotland, we have list votes. The way this works, is that there are 8 regions, which each elect 7 more MSPs. Because of this, Labour gained an additional 18 seats, to their 3 constituencies; Tories gained an additional 21 seats, to their 7 constituences; Lib-Dems gained an extra seat; and Greens gained all 5 of their seats through regions. This is more representative, because without it, SNP would have an outright majority (I wouldn't complain, but it would be undemocratic); Labour, Conservatives, and Greens would be heavily underrepresented, and SNP and Lib-Dems would be heavily over-represented.

In UK elections, there are no "list" / "regional" votes. Because of this, parties are unfairly represented.


Ultimately, because Scotland has less racial hate crime, and a more representative parliament, we are a more tolerant society to live in.

Ox, all that's cool and all, but I said country

Ox you're actually a dick. Just because you want independence, doesn't mean you have to spread anti-British propaganda. This thread had nothing to do with Scotland, yet you brought it up anyway. Was there any need ?

Yes. He said England is the most tolerant country. This is incorrect, and I proved how we are more tolerant, although we are not the most tolerant.

However, GeneralPE makes another incorrect statement. I'm not going to keep repeating myself, but I will however use Salty against PE, when he did admit Scotland is a country.

So now, all you have to do is say what Salty said.
