@dexterjack17 @scottishslander You know what it is and that’s all that matters. Hope you inform the folk who deny Scots legitimacy.

Which part of Scotland actually speaks like this?🤣 Diabolical that these fuckin weirdos get to represent the Scots because they once read Oor Wullie as a kid #Scotland #SNP #Greens

@AngiHentze @Ruf_Omn_Rex @scottishslander This one just copied what 5 other people already replied to me before hand. 😆

@Ruf_Omn_Rex @Alter451657 @scottishslander Why do folk keep saying it done badly? I am aberdonian born and bred, spoke doric all my life, still live here and they sound find to me

@Ewan__17 @surmoulage @scottishslander One of the worst I’ve seen from these types

@surmoulage @Alter451657 @scottishslander how pathetic

@LynneCopland2 @scottishslander Why?

@Alter451657 @scottishslander Thats debatable!

@LynneCopland2 @KentFyne @scottishslander Spell check Lynne.

@Alter451657 @KentFyne @scottishslander What she is speaking is NOT Doric. BTW. You’ve spelt teuchters wrong, so I reckon you’re not a Doric speaker either.

@LynneCopland2 @scottishslander I hear you. At least it’s a start for your representation

@Alter451657 @scottishslander I’ve spoken Doric all my life. Neither of these two have ever been Doric speakers in my book.

@KentFyne @scottishslander We’re fine with her speaking her native north east dialect. Teutchers need representation too.

@Alter451657 @scottishslander So why isn't she speaking Weegie given the seat she's representing?

@Handre Standard

Scotland's free banking era from 1716 to 1844 delivered stable money, financial innovation, and zero bank runs. No government deposit insurance, no lender of last resort, no regulatory capture. Just competition and market discipline doing what they do best. Three major Scottish banks- the Bank of Scotland, Royal Bank of Scotland, and British Linen Company- competed directly with dozens of smaller institutions. Each bank issued its own notes backed by gold and silver reserves. When you received notes from another bank, you could either accept them at face value (if you trusted that bank) or demand immediate conversion to specie. This created instant accountability. Banks that overissued notes or made bad loans watched their currency get rejected by the public and returned for redemption, draining their reserves fast. The market developed elegant solutions that would make today's financial engineers weep. Banks formed clearing houses to settle daily note exchanges. They established correspondent relationships across Scotland, creating a payments network more efficient than anything government bureaucrats designed. Interest rates moved freely based on supply and demand for capital, not the whims of committee-driven monetary policy. Scottish banks pioneered overdraft facilities, small-denomination notes, and branch banking while their English counterparts remained trapped by regulations. The results speak louder than any economic theory. Scotland experienced remarkable economic growth during this period, transforming from one of Europe's poorest regions into an industrial powerhouse. Bank failures were rare and contained; when institutions failed, shareholders lost money, not taxpayers. Parliament killed this monetary paradise in 1844 with the Bank Charter Act, forcing Scotland into England's central banking straitjacket. The politicians called it "reform" while destroying 128 years of monetary evolution that had actually worked.

@KyleGUFC @KezardIV Geography, aye. Do you say Barcelona play in Iberia?

@Alter451657 @KezardIV An what island is Scotland in

Despite all the modern nonsense which is seen in almost every sports club, Celtic remain Irish and Catholic. No Irish man can be against them. Unless you’re a west Brit scumbag

@KyleGUFC @KezardIV It’s a Scottish club playing in the Scottish league. There’s no such thing as a British club.

@KezardIV Could probably support our own league over a British club tbh

@JitterbugJaz @scottishslander You should defo be telling the OP about this rather than telling me about her Doric skills. Basically denied it even exits and your old man spoke it.

@Alter451657 @scottishslander I am from the area. My dad spoke it and I’ve grown up hearing it spoken. Did some classes in Doric poetry and recitation. Even if I tried to give an oath in the Doric it’d honestly sound performative. For a daily speaker it would sound fine, but it’s easy to tell the difference.

@LesterPaul58 @scottishslander Well it isn’t. So try again

@Alter451657 @scottishslander Doric my arse. That crap is right out of Oor Wullie.

@craig_mcleary @scottishslander Comparing SCOTS to a foreign language 🫵😂

@Alter451657 @scottishslander French was the language of court for a couple of hunfldred years why aren’t they taking their oath in French then?

@Helenkeenan121 @scottishslander You’re not more educated than Burns or Walter Scott, you’re just jumped up on Twitter

@Alter451657 @scottishslander Yeah but we're more educated now.

@Ruf_Omn_Rex 😂😂😂

Freshly cut straw is forever the smell of the endless summers that came every year at such a young age. Down in that hollow, by the banks of the small burn between fields, the summer was the world and the entire world was summer.

@JitterbugJaz @scottishslander Can you speak it?

@Alter451657 @scottishslander She may be attempting to speak it- but she’s failing, abysmally.

@Ruf_Omn_Rex @scottishslander You an expert?

@Alter451657 @scottishslander "She's speaking Doric" Not very well.

@popcultexpress @scottishslander Fuck up you weasel

@Alter451657 @scottishslander Hey we can keep the Scots we have in Burns poems and if half a dozen folks want to pretend to enjoy Doric then bash on but know this; Scots and Doric makes the speaker sound like fucking mongoloids. They are slang versions of English and need to fuck right off.

@Puppet77495390 @scottishslander In our courts yes. Re read if you have to.

@Alter451657 @scottishslander “We used to speak”
