Is the stushie stoking anti-English sentiment?

Calton does not, as far as he knows, have any English blood in him (although an ancestor with the surname Winchester has some explaining to do) however he does not believe in blaming the English nation any more than he would blame the Cameron clan for the activities of one David Cameron. It was therefore with some concern that he read the comment on his recent post on independence. If the current stushie between Holyrood and Westminster causes an increase in anti-English sentiment in Scotland then the sooner it is settled the better. We don't need that sort of bigotry and we don't want people who are making a positive contribution to Scotland to feel unwelcome here just because they are not Scottish. What is the definition of Scottish anyway?
