THE party is over, and Scotland are out of the Euros. I’ll be honest and say I’m not particularly a football fan – despite a few friends attempting to explain it, I still have no idea what the “offside rule” is.

The trend continued throughout the subsequent matches, with a feature interview with the manager of the England national team taking centre stage during half-time of the Scotland v Switzerland match on the When candidates were first announced for the upcoming election, the BBC used the Green Party of England and Wales logo next to candidates for the Scottish Greens in a number of seats. And when the Green Party of England and Wales launched their manifesto, analysis from the BBC confidently explained that their rent controls policy was based on their experience working on such policies as part of the Scottish Government.

Nonetheless, it’s always Scotland that is presumed to be subservient, while England is the assumed default. It’s always the Green Party of England and Wales logo slapped onto Scottish Greens candidates, not the other way around. Whether it’s football, politics, or any other topic, Scotland shouldn’t have to keep playing second fiddle. Yet for as long as we’re part of this broken union, I have little hope that things will ever change.
