he put just enough space between "I love" and "England" for them to qualify as two unrelated statements
its basically sentence fragments at this point
I love … England … and aw tha’.
💔💔💔 🏴 🏴 🏴
Not only does he disconnect ‘love’ from ‘England’, but then just to confirm the disconnect once and for all, he throws in ‘and aw tha’’
So what we can take away is the fact that he doesn’t love England after all.
@@emmanuelgoldspleen2905n aw at. Is grammatically correct. 😂😂
I love ..... England.
Can hear the pain as he strains to make this lie work
Its not that the Scots hate England .....its that the English hate the Scots.
@@silverkitty2503 Nah we don’t. We just don’t really think about Scots too much cos there ain’t many of them
@@jackholloway1 I mean considering the gruesome history of occupation and back and forth raiding for centuries you can see why. Old grudges die hard.
@@silverkitty2503 bruh the English literally say the same thing about the Scots. We're two countries that think we hate each other
@@jackholloway1 Yeah it's not so black and white the Scots did some scheming and invading of their own, with much less success.
But if your country was invaded or lorded over and its culture suppressed up until around the 1800s I think you'd understand a lot better the anger some people still feel.
Theres also more modern reasons as to why people dont like england. The scottish referendum for independence wasnt just for a laugh. 45% voted to leave the union, that isnt just born out of 200 year old grudges.
As someone that grew up in Shetland, I can confirm Limmy is a master troll with this attempt to send non-Shetlanders to Shetland
Your comment ended up in an article about this clip!
Do you remember ohbc on naked video with Gregor Fisher. Hilarious. We scots can take a joke. Rikki fulton too
@@shauncowell6215 where
Is Shetland like the Birmingham equivalent in scotland?
@@MinorSpiffy Yes and no. Yes in that they are v similar places, but no in that only shetland is worth a visit if you get the chance.
As soon as he said Shetland, you could tell he had no idea where this patter was going
Shetlander here and we don't even celebrate Burns night. Also we have no tartan. It's the least Scottish place in Scotland. Just a bunch of wannabe vikings. Maybe that's the joke? But I think you're right he picked a random place.
@@samsmith5308 You could see the gears turning in his mind to decide the funniest place. He missed the mark on this one, it's clearly Perth.
Shetlander's refer to Scotland as 'down south" and see themselves as distinct from the mainland.
@@samsmith5308 Shitland
@@monty3854 why Perth
Some of Limmy's best friends are English.

@Spudman key word HAD. Limmy stopped that quickly

I thought this would piss me off but honestly he's right, lived here 8 years and we're just a Travelodge for wankers.
Travelodge for wankers is a phenomenal description of Edinburgh
A Travelodge for wankers is just a Travelodge
Ouch.
Why do the Scots hate the English so much? (politics aside, most English hate the Tories too) Seem to make out we're arrogant or something but honestly it seems to be the other way around 😂
Nationalism/patriotism always seems so toxic
I love how so many people in the comments are taking this so seriously forgetting that Limmy is literally a comedian.
It's amazing isn't it that these people walk amongst us!
@@LimmyTwitchClipsPlus Leith isnae Edinburgh
In the past i would laugh peoples reactions off to funny stuff like this but now im just concerned, no one is allowed to crack a joke anymore or make fun of something. The island has become shutter island
Yeah, like when he used to joke about being depressed and topping himself on his 2011 streams, I mean who could take anything said in jest seriously, right?
@@F--B but you always need to use common sense and context to decide whether its a joke or not.
This got me thinking: the south and up to Edinburgh is England, and the west coast is Ireland, and the northeast is Norway. Limmy's really challenging my belief in the nation-state here.
East Anglia is Netherlands naturally.
dublin is a cross between brussels and new york though
Are you getting it yet? There is no Scotland, never was.
Scotland was invented by Walter Scott and Mel Gibson. The Glaswegian accent was derived from an impression of Mel when he got drunk...
Thats not what he meant, Glasgow is further south than Edinburgh, so Glasgow would be England too. He specifically means Edinburgh is England
Muirhouse, Pilton, Niddrie, Granton, Broomhouse, Wester Hailes; all popular areas for tourists in Edinburgh.
Aye man, No one cares for the communitys and I would hope Limmy isnt as ignorrant of them as he just made out. There is no Scotland if you cant look out for your own ya dobber.
@Kushty Mckush A snowflake for pointing out that Edinburgh isn't the tory stronghold that Limmy is claiming it to be?
@Kushty Mckush aye its a joke. It's his humour. Naked video ripped the pish out of the hebrides and rikki fulton ripped sectarianism. When did we stop laugh at ourselves. Even Jack and Victor mention sheep shaggers. Banter
@Kushty Mckush Think you need to calm down lol
@Kushty Mckush It's called irony
For the real scotish exeperiance you gotta go to Yoker (by bus)
No need I already live there
most people have nae business being in Yoker. are you trying to get people battered?
@@Robert-rl7rdyou're no fae Yoker
I thought he was gonna say yoker
I was hoping for Millport.
I was expecting Aberdeen or Dundee 🤣
Some people have never wondered what it's like to go to Yorker. Mind-boggling
Get that thought back under your tin hat.. Pal ! Yohkir !
He’s got nae business bein in Yoker
"I love...England"
Said Dumbledore truthfully
Cmon Limmy, true Scotland isn't even in Scotland. It's in Canada, where they made a New Scotland to replace the old one.
Damn right.
Forced to make a new scotland*
There are other 'new Scotlands' around the world too, the lower south island of New Zealand, and pockets of Australia
Aye just like New York
Limmy: "if you want authentic Scotland experience..."
Me: "Glasgow, probably"
Limmy: "no not Glasgow
Me: o.O
Glasgow is basically a "Great Northern City" like Liverpool. Scotland is confined to Clackmannanshire.
glasgow is basically southern england
I haven't laughed so hard in ages, at the part where he says "...to Shetland". I just watched it 10 times and it gets funnier and funnier.
By the way edinburgh evening news covered this and everyone in the comments was fuming lmao
really!? lmao
Every weegie has Edinburgh in their heeds all day every day
Rent free in their weegie heeds
Aye, and people from edinburgh with there GCSE and fake English accent live up England arsehole.😂😂
''weegie'' says it all

@@Support-your-local-team Chookters, Burgers & Sheep Shaggers.
Why’s he lying and saying he likes England
No one likes England.... not even the English. They can't wait to get out.
Aye, and the rest of Lothian too. It's Northumbrian land and I'll never accept what happened in 973.
Aye a stay in tranent and its full ae wee stinkin unionists but does have the good ones tae am fae edinburgh tho and pure scottish
Edinburgh does have an Englishness of a certain kind
Probably because it was literally an English city
@@ahtuno *Anglo-saxon.
@Ross Boyd there's no difference between Anglo-Saxon and English it's literally the same word
An intelligence of a certain kind, hehe!
Yeah, but the difference is - Edinburgh is mostly suburban and insanely beautiful. Mostly. Glasgow has its own lovely ways but mostly, it's a junkie ridden shithole. Fuck me, Glasgow makes Dundee look incredible.
Really sad to see this aging nursing home patient forget basic geography. Really awful - nurses should check on him more often.
Have you only just discovered Limmy or something? The guy's a comedian.
@@countertopconfessions9975 the joke
As someone whose English is not their first language, I watch these clips every time YT recommends them just to test myself and see how well I can understand English. It's 50/50 so far.
Hahaha this is a terrible way to learn normal English mate. Speak like this and Americans won't understand you
@@TaRxFaCe Aye they will, tonnes of them are "one eighth Scotch"
This is Scots, technically. If you want to learn English properly, there are only three legitimate ways to do it: 1) copy Hugh Grant, 2) copy Danny Dyer or 3) copy Mr. Bean. Those are the only real English accents - anything else is either northern, Scottish or foreign (including Irish). Its true, ask any true Engerlish person.
it’s kinda true, I live in the central belt and I remember when I was in high school being asked what places in Scotland we’d define as being “truly Scottish” the whole of the class said Glasgow or the Highlands and Islands, then we were asked what we wouldn’t consider as being “truly Scottish” then we said Edinburgh because they are posh and speak with hybrid English accents, the people living in the borders also have weird accents and are too close to England for anyones liking. St Andrews and Aberdeen are too stuck up and international in their gated communities and Shetland is practically norway and still votes Lib Dem. it’s funny how we have such a proud national identity that if your posh or speak with a non heavy Scottish accent then your basically English.
if only people in your school had ever bothered to visit Edinburgh
Only Clackmannanshire left.
@@void_7828"Started" ? This is the kind of invidious parallel reality confabulated by Scottish nationalists. Gaelic has been taught even in lowland West Lothian primary schools since the early 90s at *least* when I was there. Meanwhile, West Lothian has spoken English or something of the sort since 900 AD. Yet we're unconditionally always claiming some sort of subjugation or dispiritedness etc etc etc. It is unilateral self-derangement, the whole thing.
@@ianinkster2261West Lothian spoke the Northumbrian variety of Old English which then evolved into Lothian Scots :)
@@nat9380correct
Corby finally getting its moment of fame
Represent
I went to Gretna once and they had a shopping centre called ‘gateway’ and I got a nice coat from the superydry shop there. I got an Irn Bru too. 🏴
I went to Gretna once to interview for a job in a chocolate shop. Didnae get it.
With the coat ? Lol
Did ye aye
Gretna is actually quite Scottish. Not quite sure when it all changes on the border but it seems to be quite sudden.
He's pulling your leg. Love how he gets everyone. "You've got to go to.... Shetland" Love it!
Edinburgh is what happens when Disney make a Scottish theme park. It's an open air gift shop.
Edinburgh has a population of half a million, mostly Scottish, mostly working class.
We moved to Edinburgh for a few months and I remember actually not meeting that many actual Scottish people just around and about. There were English, Australians, europeans... who were all obviously nice and friendly. But the estate agents, the people working in pubs, even some of the famous Whiskey shops, the barber of a random barbers I walked into for a cut (English), people when we went on a night out. We met a few proper Scots, obviously. Probably. I think. We definitely did.
Did you not leave Old Town?
Limmy's just jealous Edinburgh has all the monuments and historical landmarks while Glasgow has a bridge and severe knife crime
Na he's jealous coz theres Mair drugs pal and ye get tae run awa fae the polis in princes Street 😉
@@JamieVauxnut1 People that think Edinburgh is more like England are the ones that have barely spent any time there. Your loss.
ah, nothing like a bit of glasweigan jealousy
Edinburgh is actually just a massive theme park we built in 1972 to cater to asian tourists. State of folks walkin' around Edinburgh thinkin' it's Scotland, it's like wandering around Disneyland thinking yer actually in the magic kingdom.
Is this all a cunning plan by Limmy to get all the English to start moving to Shetland instead? Smart.
The people taking this seriously hahahahaha
EDINBURGH IS NORTHUMBRIA. LONG LIVE THE SAXONS
CORBY! Haha. I was born in Kettering, the town over. Northamptonshire.
Corby is full of Scots, from the steel industry days. I do love the Scots that live in Corby though. It's miles better in Corby than Edinburgh.
I love Edinburgh
"I'm not *something I am*...but..." :D
i think i've never seen a named logical fallacy play-out so vividly in reality.
Ha!
How to say "I've never been more than half a mile from Waverley station" without actually saying it
This.
Exactly
Yeah 100% I understand why he would think this being in the city centre but there are definitely parts of Edinburgh that feel more Scottish. There's parts of Glasgow that feel like that as well, at least when I lived in the west end it did.
@@adcombe Glasow is largely an Irish city. Words like 'wain' are Northern Irish.
@@Kyle-hq2rm Aye but that came from Scots originally (wee ane). There's been a lot of back and forth between these places.
haha, what is Lims on aboot? That's just the middle of Edinburgh - an international capital city. For every Morningside, Trinity, Grange there is a Gorgie, Muirhouse, Pilton, Granton, Criagmillar, Moredun etc and they are certainly very Scottish
Plenty of shite holes in Edinburgh. Used to pick up in Wester Hales and that is proper deprivation man… guess that’s what we need if we’re to be true Scots eh!
I gew up in Muirhouse, it was english too. Just being deprived doesn't make it scottish
He's right about Edinburgh. I've lived here all my life its not like it was in the 70s. It's been gentrified for the rich with born in the blood edinburghers have been priced out the city. Its still a great place to live and is a fantastically cosmopolitan city but the rich are taking over.
same's happening with Aberdeen used to be differen't 5 years ago now its slowly being filled with wanks in their ferraris showing off their oil money like its nae gonna run out
This is arguably happening in every city.
I grew up in Edinbugh (Muirhouse) in the 60's and 70's. Edinburgh was always more English than the rest of Scotland. I think it was / is to do with its 'capital city' role, lots of english influence and civil service jobs.
You only had to go as far south as Penicuik, or across to Fife to get to real Scotland.
It’s sort of like Cardiff not really being welsh. Hardly anyone there even sounds welsh.
A friend of mine is from North Wales and can even speak Welsh, but you wouldn't know he's Welsh until he says. He sounds English.
The Welsh accent and language is mostly in the small towns and villages in the valleys.
There is a Cardiff accent tho. Which is Welsh. The valleys are a 15-20 minute drive north, where you’ll find the stereotypical welsh accent
Everyone from Cardiff has a Welsh accent, especially if they're from a working class area. The only reason it's fainter than other parts of Wales is because this little thing happened where the English continually fucked us for several centuries in a deliberate attempt to strip us of our language and culture.
same here in Irleand in relation to Dublin.
What a weird day, now I’ve got tae kick fuck out of Limmy for saying Edinburgh is England. Never thought I’d get here!
He jokes saying Edinburgh is England.
Even if he weren't joking, there's ALWAYS one Scottish place more English than Edinburgh, Berwick-upon-Tweed.
It's in England but
You know you're in Edinburgh and not Glasgow if you don't almost die on your trip. I went to the fair in Glasgow once and almost fell off one of the rides. Wouldny fly in Edinburgh
I went to Inverness once
Never again
I take it you must have stayed there permanently then, aye?
I lost 21 year o my life to Inverness. Had to stay in Leith for 8 years to get me aff it.
my condolences
I went to Inverness, and can I just shock you? I liked it.
@@TheDarkInstall You spent 48 hours there then?
Funny how these weegies are sooooo jealous of Edinburgh 😂😂
And Glasgow was the inspiration for the popular video game franchise, Doom.
How I feel about Dublin as an Irish man
same....and i live there
Just say it Limmy. We talk faster, we think faster - we're better.
One word - Leith.
Gentrified tf now but still potholed tf too😉
Really earning those Scottish BAFTA's with this performance.
Very true, London is not really England to truly see England is to go to Edinburgh
You can say this about lots of places though. People from the West Country don’t think Bristol represents them, people from ritual Gloucestershire don’t think Gloucester represents them. Most English people certainly don’t think London represents them. Cities are melting pots, that’s true everywhere, not just Scotland.
I'd think Cheltenham was more non-representative of Gloucestershire. I don't know anyone here with a local accent - even people who were born and brought up in Chelt sound like they're from London. And as far as I'm concerned London isn't England, it's London. A country can be surrounded by another one, and it is.
Glaswegian screwed himself when he realised he had to come down as either Pro-Edinburgh or Pro-England
Spoken like a true Glaswegian.
That's the great thing about limmy's videos, not only do you get a laugh or two but you get to learn stuff
I think John Cleese was shot and skinned for saying similar about London
Wow this clip has really brought out the cunts
@@jaimemurphy2208 calm down Jayme
@Dd Gg geo territory jokes are me favs
I feel about this statement the same way that limmy felt when limmy saw daniel radcliffe choosing "Puppies" over "Kittens.
Oh my gosh, I was wondering what your take on this would be given your love of Edinburgh and here you are! Great video yesterday btw.
Shetland also isn't Scotland, the inhabitants love to tell you that
As an inhabitant, do they? 🤣
Glesga is Scotland, Edinburgh isnae.
Sturgeon MUST condemn.
For real this time, enough is enough.
Same like going to Berlin and saying you've been to Germany.
Well, its the only place in Germany I've been too...... please don't take that from me 💔
Yep. There are towns in Australia that are more German than Berlin.
@@AyeAyeAye19 still, you've been to the most awesome city in Europe ;) but for real Germany you'd have to go to Bavaria.
@@Ichneumonxx What makes Bavaria more German than lets say Schleswig Holstein? Is it their conservative catholic culture?
@@doe8792 I'm not saying that one land is more German than the other. I'm saying that Berlin is as indicative of Germany as New York is of America. Plus, Berlin is very specific as it had been under American, French and Soviet military rule simultaneously for decades. Bavaria has the architecture, the food, the historical monuments and the overall chill synonymous with German culture. That doesn't mean these things don't appear somewhere else as well.
It's true. I'm glad someone has the guts to say it.
Nah, nah, nah, Limmy… Edinburgh is LONDON not England.
Was banking on him saying Cowdenbeath at the end
He’s no wrang
Edinburgh is British in the same way London is British.
I thought he was gonna say you've got to go to Yoker.
I'm Scottish and live in the Highlands. Would I rather go to Glasgow or Edinburgh? Edinburgh every time.
Edinburgh's like a snow-globe. A pretty object, a pleasant scene kept preserved under glass. You give it a shake and admire it once or twice a year. Otherwise forgotten and left on a shelf. Glasgow is lived-in.
@@MarcoTheGreat2008 Each to their own.I go for a city break everyone in a while, Edi suits me as it's quieter. Glasgow people are brilliant and hilarious 😂
I mean it like a case for all capital/Biggest cities that they are just basically tourist attraction and if you want to get an actual sense of the culture of the country you have to go smaller cities or villages.
Totally agree. Central belt Scotland is more culturally similar to North England than it is to North Scotland.
Corby 🤣🤣 What a place it is. Scottish football strips, an annual highland games, pipe bands, irn bru and lorne sausage. 100 miles north of London 🤣
I knew someone from the Shetlands and he spoke the queen's English.
That's coz a lot of English are up here. They've moved to work or find a better friendlier life that's why they stay. Scots are good folk
By this logic….New York isn’t America. It’s just an international enclave
Well nowadays it certainly us. Yuck.
Corby is absolutely a Scottish colony!
English guy who recently went to Edinburgh for thr first time. People say Leith is rough but I found it to be chock full of fucking hipsters and students everywhere. The only time I ever heard a scottish accent in Edinburgh was when I got in a cab. The rest its either English or Chinese. Limmy is right tbf.
I couldn't give a fuck about the differences between Edinburgh and Glasgow.
And the reason for that is because I've got a life.
I'm from Corby didn't expect a mention in this video
It's like saying if you want true French experience you have to go to Brittany.
That's not France. They're celts.
Funny thing is Shetland is actually Norway
Is this the Scottland version of the Left eating itself?
Nah, it's a classic "no true Scotsman". Love to see it!

Got to yoker
When he says Edinburgh isn't Scotland, what he means is, Edinburgh isn't Glasgow. I am inclined to agree.

IDK why but as an american I still knew in my heart he was about to say shetland. dont ask how i knew i just had a hunch.
Limmy has been to three streets in Edinburgh. Doesn't like the WiFi you see
I thought he was gonna say Millport.
It’s got that weird hill though
The nats would hate it if the capital of their country was an English enclave xD
Limmy says what we all feel
Listen I don't know why this is an argument, we're more alike than we are different. If you dropped an American into Manchester and told him it was Glasgow, he wouldn't know any better.
Limmy hates the English, it makes him feel like a big man
