What were the British attitudes toward the British rule?
Technically speaking, No one enjoyed it. Wales had no choice; they were annexed under English rule, the Scottish, really had no choice.. Scottish Nobles had to form the 1707 Act of Union to form the United Kingdom, otherwise eventually.. England would've really built a road to Scotland to crush them! And personally I can't say much about Northern Ireland (Ulster). England: Years ago, even the English were treated badly by the British Government, for years and even to this day the British Government have been corrupt. Scotland: Scotland would like independence, some think they wouldn't be able to survive seeing as they haven't had to look after there selves for years, even a Scottish man said "United we stand, Divided we fall." Wales: Technically speaking, Most don't mind, the Welsh Nationalists hate Wales being under British Rule. Northern Ireland: Again, I can't comment seeing as I don't know too much about that To sum it all up; The English don't mind, the British Government is in England, and the Queen lives in England, the other 3 are have people who do and don't like being under British Law. If I weren't of much help, contact me at crazygeorge.05@hotmail.co.uk and I'll give my personal point of view if it helps.
