'I've never actually met anyone who speaks Gaelic. Neither have any of my friends or close relatives who've lived in Scotland all their lives.
Why bother learning a language that's only spoken by a tiny minority (who also speak fluent English)?
As usual - a waste of time and money that's supported by a Scottish 'government' who are hell bent on proving we're a 'unique' nation.
We need to get rid of these huge chips on our shoulders and integrate.'
Beò ann an aineòlas
Integrate with what? The lowest common denominator?
