@Da Jåkl It was very clearly a joke.
@Da Jåkl You sound fun at parties.
Sectarianism is much more widespread and defining in NI than in Scotland. I don't even know how you got to this video if you never understood that.
@@Yamezzzz he deleted his comment Cad freak
You’re Irish.
@@Byron5369-k8p You're Hungarian.
Nazi or Red Hand salutes, depending upon your point of view? What kind of irresponsible, patronizing journalism is that?
denislaw8 it's accurate? I see them as nazi salutes, they are racist bigoted scum, just like nazis, they are called Huns, just like the nazis, they are detested by everyone, just like the nazis, and they do the one hand salute, just like the nazis
The "hun" word is nothing to do with nazis its a reference to the 1960 euro game in wolverhampton when 10.000 Rangers fans rioted across the border and the English media described them as marauding huns Steve.
LEGGIE 65 LEGGIE65 i know that mate, and in general that is correct, but in this instance of extreme right wing activity with nazi salutes and violence and racism, I would say the German nazi isn't a bad description either
No problem stevie cheers.
denislaw8 to me it's a nazi salute !
People with Scottish flags getting beaten up in Scotland, says a lot really.SHAME
That land is nolonger Scotland its now called England. Its all england,
Scotland has been England for the last what 300 -400 years ?? They proved it with their votes :(
***** don't worry you have amother 400 years to wait for the new generation .. Am sure you all just need another 400 years ..
Brendan McGlinchey HUH ?? Who has the problem mate ?? Have a sook why don't u .. Perhaps even learn what sarcasm is .. o.O. LOL fail often ??
Brendan McGlinchey chump u get the vote was 7 months ago or u only now just catching up to the politics ?? o.O .. this is too gold !! LOL LOL
Im scottish, And i never knew riots happened that much in scotland!
me too, i thought we were a peacefull country
@@aonghas8677 peaceful? Lol everyday have violence in Scotland.
@@fuckheinschitt239 well.. i got that wrong but i probs just never see the violence because of where i live IN Scotland
Mainly Glasgow. As usual it's loyalists that cause trouble
Only when the UK loyalists are involved
Absolute fannies. If you voted based on your football team then you don't deserve a vote.
Kieran Tierney Enthusiast we didn’t vote based on our football team, we voted based on our NATIONALITY and support a football team because of our NATIONALITY. Our identity and nationality comes first you idiot.
@@whosthis7216 Indeed, you'd have voted for Scottish interests then? No? Voted to keep this country run by another methinks.
JimD I’m British.
@@whosthis7216 You can be English, Scottish or a UK citizen.
JimD no you literally can’t. My passport says “The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland”. There is no legal recognision of what being Scottish or English is, hence why the FA’s if the nations had to bring in specific birth right laws that exist within no other nation in order to determine who qualifies to play for the country. I am British, my passport recognises that, that is my citizenship and my nationality, I couldn’t be anything else even if I wanted to be. Tell me, what’s the “Scottish passport” look like?
Scotland out of Britain, Britain out of Ireland
+TheCelticbhoyjay If you want to chisel Scotland out of Britain be my guest. Might take awhile though.
A saw is what you need mate
England out of Wales
Wannabe Irish republicans out of Scotland
Always Ibrox
This was a pretty one sided report 😧
Say what you see...
"A riot, hardly" WHAT! Places were burned down!
I'm tired of this west coast bigotry, I can't believe that in this day and age a person would vote in a referendum basing opinions on these entrenched & childish viewpoints. It will never change I suppose and again its always this small small group of people who just spoil it with oafish acts. Poor Scotland
How is singing “Scotland said no” and “Rule Britannia” anti-Catholic? 🤦🏻♂️😣
Becuase rule Britannia is briitish empire
The problem is that it has become a matter of patriotism and flag waving rather than being about what is actually better for the Scottish
My point exactly
No way. IMO much more sense going it alone!
Agree about labour. I think they should change their name. To new torys. Which is what they are anyway!
The day after the referendem Cameron never mentioned Scotland at all.
Only how they would change things in England! Seen that coming!
I never said Scotland shouldn't have gone independent, I agree with both of you but nationalism should really be avoided as it tends to obscure the important factors that need to be dealt with such as matters of the NHS, military etc. Also a no vote could actually lead to more change in Scotland as those who voted no realise the mistake they made and the yes voted will become more antagonised and as the NHS becomes privatised and jobs to elsewhere people will start to wake up a bit more. If Cameron is so certain in his demand for English laws for English people then I guess he hasn't taken into account the north of England who would wave him bye in a second haha
I agree with the bit at the end, about the north of England.
But thats what the torys have been doing for years.
I've watched them for years destroy our heavy industries. And the smaller ones too. It's been blatent for years. They move the work too the south east where their heartland is. Remember it's votes that count. Not people!
Yep and now they want to build hs2 which will mean even more of our economy goes south, where the rich can drain the all what little money the uk has left. They think it'll I prove the North but it'll be bad for both the north and the south because as the south becomes more prosperous it'll force the poor out because they won't be able to cope with the rising living prices. It's not just the Tories though, anyone who you vote for these days will make life worse for those at the bottom and these days even those of the middle class and well off working class. Labour are just Tory lite who are too scared to let the banks fail, lib dems are a joke, ukip will be a heavy duty form of conservatives, BNP ...well they're the BNP, greens will make energy bills go through the roof, SWP are rape apologists who basically want to repeat the Soviet Union 'but good this time'. So fuck it we should just vote monster raving looney party, at least they know they're a joke.
you boil these issues down you end up with Catholic v protestant.
Even the trouble in Ukraine boils down to religion.
yet how many of these people follow their religion as faithfully
as their football team?
Don't think I've ever met a rangers fan who is a true protestant to be honest. Claim they're religiously protestant and only love the queen and Britain etc for that reason. They have no concept of forming their own opinion based on logic
Calum O I’m no Scottish football supporter but I’m sure it’s the same with Celtic
mikerevs34 none of them .
Just got to get independence over the line.
So true
I’ve never met a catholic in Scotland who’s first loyalty wasn’t to Ireland and the Catholic Church. Celtic supporters wave an Irish flag! And the catholics in Scotland wonder why they’re hated by the Scots😂😂 every country hates people who betray their own country. The catholic community call it sectarianism. Everyone else would just call it what it is, treachery to your country.
Of course this is all compounded by the fact that the Catholic Church isn’t even controlled in Scotland, that’s done from Rome.
This madness started 1700 years ago. Emperor Constantine, an atheist himself, realised he couldn’t control the empire militarily so he created a religion, the Roman Catholic Church and to support it he had a book written, the bible. It was written 350 years after the events it’s supposed to depict so I doubt it’s a true and accurate record of events😂😂😂
I'm Scottish. And Republic of Ireland my favourite country now. After the embarrassment of referendum. They bled for freedom, our weak willed fanny country couldn't even tick enough yeses. Lol
Brittania rules nothing now, the world has moved on, so should the hard of thinking.

Lol😂
Much love Scotland from.england
You're only saying that cause we're stuck wit yous, if we had gotten independence you'd say otherwise.
@quadruple treble 1888 the dream baby 🏴
@Kinky Winky fair I was a dickhead in hind sight. Guess about 3 odd months ago I was in a heavy independence mood. It was uncalled for, I apologise man.
@Kinky Winky aha it's alright man don't worry about it.
@@13inchchub94 much love to the unionist in Scotland then, the rest of youse are irish anyway
Hope for Scottish from Ireland
Clicked on the link expecting the usual Thomson 1 sided hatchet job which it was to a certain extent but this time he at least tried to show 'some' impartiality and point out there were yes campaigners who were also arrested and too blame for a lot of the trouble but unfortunately again he has to mention Rangers and the anti catholic bile, which was there without question, but fails to mention the anti British (in some cases protestant) hatred that is also in Glasgow, which fueled an awful lot of the yes campaign there in my experience, and was there last night as well.
Well said. After reading the bullshit on this thread. You seem to be the only one who has a grasp on the truth.
TBH I seen this coming months ago.
When Irish republican bands and sympathisers adoptied the Saltire.
For the first time ever they painted it on drums. Sporting it everywhere crossed with the Irish tricolor.
And knowing how narrow minded, some people can be. I knew this would get a reaction. That could ruin the whole atmosphere of what really should have been about Scotland and nothing else!
david1966dc no your talking shite , you are another unionist with his head in the clouds . loyal to something that doesnt give a shite about you . sad really
david1966dc stop talking shit then and i wont troll anymore
david1966dc oooohhh the irish are hiding behind the guise of scottish nationalism to vent their pro irish agenda !! hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahhahahahahahahah , lol,lol,lol,!!!!! now that is priceless!
Robert Anderson thank you Robert .
I have to say the reporting was very well done and a lot less biased than usual I like the way they didn't over play it and mentioned the red hand of Ulster.
Red hand of ulster salute🤣🤣🤣 this was laughed out of town years ago🤣 quite clearly just a bunch of neo nazi thugs with their regular nazi salute.
Goes to show how much the media declined in recent years, especially after the pandemic.
One consistent theme is their absolute cowardliness. Sucker punching a guy is a prime example, if u want to fight someone do it, but the rangers way is to sneak up on someone and punch them when they aren't looking, or go for 20 against 1, it's the rangers/sevco/hun/orange way
Divide and rule ! Look into the agenda !
Funny cause this is the same tactic the Brits used when they ruled India.
Channel 4 has a lot to answer for on conflict of interest considering Jon Snow is on staff and his Nephew Dan Snow was a leader in No campaign
Many of those loyalists look as though they could scratch their feet from a standing position.
That's because they are still living with their sisters.
Would have been classed a riot in every other country but scotland
Im a Rangers fan and im proud to say I voted yes
The minority though lol no voter 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
And im saying I voted yes and I don't care wtf the rest
finally someone who doesn't incorporate their team/religion into politics. I have the utmost respect for you
+XxBruce5002xX thanks
Well done mate
Speaking as a Scot as well as an Atheist who was a no-voter in the referendum I condemn those idiots. They don't speak for me, and I despise the kind of sectarian bigotry they whip up. They're nothing but a disgrace and an embarrassment, not only to Glasgow but Scotland as a whole.
"Anti-catholic at times, only 6 arrests", Welcome to Scotland. Best wee country in the world my arse.
You see the common occurrence here?
Loyalists are always starting shite the same happened friday in govan
No serious injuries? What about the three people who were knifed?

The don't try that anywhere else in Scotland.
Unionist started this, not a surprise.
Very much played down the true extent of the violence by Loyalist British Nationalist. I came Glasgow from Edinburgh that evening for a meal with other Eastern Europeans. One was a Crimean Tartar who had been attacked because of his dark color by men wearing blue shirts carrying that union flag. He and those with him immediately told police nearby who told them to get off the street in the restaurant but did nothing about the attackers. The attackers Unionist went passed the window laughing while the police shooed them along the street.
I believe from what I have witnessed that evening and been told there were many attacks like this with no arrests. Political machinations of the UK government no doubts.
Naw ye didn't,
this is what the SNP has done to our country.
Is this a United country? I don't think so! 😒
I will always be for scotland very medieval great grandfather Robert the Bruce 3rd Scotland should be independent
don't think i have ever met a Celtic fan who is a true Catholic to be 100% honest. They claim to religiously Catholic but only want to promote Irish independence and support terrorist organisations e.g.IRA and PLO etc. They have no idea about forming their own independent conclusions after doing their own independent research… For example most Celtic fans are 100% unaware it was Pope Adrian IV in 1155 who gave King Henry II his blessing to invade Ireland.. It was their own Pope who organised the invasion of their beloved Ireland. Most Celtic fans say Rangers FC are a new football team and have lost their long history while being blissfully unaware that in 1994 Celtic were eight million pounds in debt and were liquidated / bankrupt.
Bitter much?

Ch4 always show the news properly. Didn't hear any of this from bbc
completely bias reporting , typical from channel 4
The SNP supporters started all the sectarian trouble by marching with Palestinian and Irish tricolour flags
your opinion is based on a football club, like most of the remain voters. knowing nothing politically or economically. you should go to england because you are an englishman not a scot.
You are talking like the orange march hasn't existed for fucking decades. Politics have nothing to do with football you fuckin helmet. If you want to bark to your masters in London then that's fine. Dont expect the entire country to do the same.

I don't care what side you're on, if you vote because of a fucking football team you need to evaluate your life.
I want the Union preserved because Scotland is an amazing landscape and amazing people and independence could inhibit my drive into the Kingdom, nevertheless I am saddened by the face of sectarianism that still prevails, some people still have a 1690s mindset surely there has to be better ways to celebrate pride in the Union, my idea would would be a joint Celtic Rangers cricket team playing T20 against a bunch of Afghan refugees in Govan, btw I live in Yorkshire.
People from Northern Ireland came over to cause the maximum trouble. NO ONE fights Republican versus Unionism like hate filled Northern Ireland.We don't need them here in Scotland.A United Ireland and Independence for Scotland Now!!

Everyone -- This is a VERY long post so please read it all the way through, as I mean every word sincerely.
To see these comments below pains me no end -- for both sides of the debate. I personally am Scottish and would be proud to see Scotland become an independent country, but that does not affect how I feel about the clear animosity being displayed between those who call themselves English and those who call themselves Scottish. I cannot stand by and watch as our people are clearly in pain. First, I will address the English, and next address the Scottish.
To the English: For those of you who feel this way (as not all do), I completely understand your reason for feeling animosity towards us Scots. While obviously not all Scots are like this, I have certainly watched anti-English sentiment flare up since last year's referendum, and I'm embarrassed. This anti-English sentiment, I believe, began with the English government's bid to control Scotland during the Middle Ages. Obviously, the English people cannot be judged by the actions of a few then, just as they cannot be judged by the actions of a few now. (I'm not accusing today's government of being unfair and biased against the Scots, I just know that there are Scottish people who still feel they are being slighted, and their opinions need to be heard.) So while I am a Scot, and proud to be one, does that mean I am proud of the disrespectful things some Scots have said and done towards the English? Absolutely not. It's my opinion that the English people have been misrepresented by people like Edward I (now I know that Braveheart is mostly historically inaccurate and very much embellished by Hollywood, but there still is no denying that he had issues... :) I feel that the English do not deserve the racism and hate they have received, just as no culture deserves it. But while your anger is completely understandable, do you agree with me that it's not particularly helpful for creating a kinder, more accepting society? :) :)
I also know that setting such emotional burdens down is not easy -- there is a LOT of hurt and frustration here, on both sides of the debate. And I'm not perfect either! I, too, have to counsel myself. All I'm saying is that we have to try together, making steps in the right direction.
But before I go further, I apologize for any political inaccuracies I have made above, and for any that I might make further on. I'm not too keen on politics, as I am currently a Wildlife Ecology student. While I do know a thing or two about Scottish history, I unfortunately don't know much about anything past the Jacobite Rebellion. So please forgive me if I slip up -- I'm trying my best. :) Please teach me if I am mistaken about anything fact-based! I'd love to learn.
To the Scottish: I have learned the ins and outs of most our history. I know what our people are about. We have experienced together, lived together, died together. Our people remind me of the song, "Indian Reservation" by Paul Revere and the Raiders, about the Cherokee people -- "So proud to live... So proud to die!" (It's a pretty cool song by the way.) And while I absolutely do NOT hate the English, I do dislike and very much resent that our people have suffered in the past from decisions individual people -- many of whom being English -- have made. I was initially introduced to this topic when I was much younger (sorry England, you're not going to like this I'm afraid :) by watching Braveheart. And while it didn't give me a whole lot of accurate facts to hold onto, it's overall message did show me the thrill of pursuing a dream. I have to admit, I was pretty fired up! :) But as I grew older, I learned that while passion and nationalism are by all means good things, I cannot let them control the way I choose to see other people. As I mentioned above, do you agree that we all have to strive to see people for who they are, not for who they have been represented by? And, in turn, I hope the English can see us for who we are too.
As I said above, I recognize that what I’m asking us to do is not easy. These emotions are very real, palpable, and in our throats. Yet in order to reach a truly equal, accepting, and tolerant U.K., I believe the goal here is not to see people past their differences. Rather, we must see and accept people because of them. Do you agree? It will be hard, but just know that my thoughts and hopes go out to you all. Lets walk together.
Peace -- and I truly mean it. Let’s make history.
Thanks! I'm serious... let's do this.

Over written pish. "Fears of rising sectarianism" means almost nothing, particularly if you know the background.
