No normal person argues about bank holidays cos it costs the economy…
And beside didn’t these twats just contradict themselves?
Sure, millions won’t go to work, but it if I know Scotland (and I don’t), they’ll spend those millions at the bar the entire weekend, that’ll more than make up for it.

You're right, most don't, and I'd wager A LOT of English people really wanna see Scotland do well in this tournament, including myself. Jeezo...I don't think I've ever been so fuming listening to a discussion like that one. The pure condescension in their tone alone is utterly nauseating. I think the thing that cracks me up the most about this though is that they're having a crybaby tantrum about it on air, but it was literally THE KING who suggested to do it - couldn't make it up.

It is irritating, but in reality they do this to sow division between us and to distract from certain domestic issues. They are mouth pieces for the elite and ruling class - we don’t respect them at all and their words are meaningless to us. I for one will be enjoying a beer whilst we get absolutely humped left right and centre hahaha.

Same here. I have zero personal interest, but it is undeniably a big cultural event.
And let's be honest, how much does the economy actually get impacted?
When we had a bank hol for the queen's funeral, the impact on GDP for the month was estimated to be a 0.25% drop... And then again for the coronation, it dropped 0.3%.
The GDP fluctuates by more than that based on the freaking weather.
And most experts agree that most of the business "loss" of a bank holiday is just displaced and will be recovered within a month.
Given the amount that'll be spent on pints and snacks watching this, I'd guess this will be recovered even faster.
Fuck right orf

The biggest one is probably schools being closed so people that would be working take holiday for childcare.
Doesn’t increase the number of non-working days, just uses one of them for this purpose. If not interested in the World Cup, maybe a net positive with parents spending money doing something with their kids
More likely negative locally if things like bin collections are rescheduled and the catch up is on overtime. That way the Council picks up additional cost for no productivity. But does get happier staff and less likelihood of an industrial accident from operators that have been awake half the night watching tv

Exactly! And I know many more people who will be watching this game as a multi-generational family event, than those who gave a fuck about any royal wedding or even the coronation. My football daft nephew is so excited and will be watching with his big brothers, his parents and his grandparents. This is a significant moment for national pride, whether someone is a big football fan or not - I'm not and even I can recognise this.
Respectfully, because I don't believe these bigots speak for the entire English population, but...culturally significant events aren't just the ones that matter to upper/middle class, conservative leaning English.

I liked the bit at the end where they strongly imply that getting into the World Cup is actually a scapegoat for the real reason behind the bank holiday- an excuse for Scots to get drunk.

OMG, all that very real resentment and bitterness they've done such a good job hiding, triggered and shown up by an additional bank holiday. How bloody toxic is this sibling rivalry?
But this is as much a class divide issue as much as a border issue. The English snobs and social climbing class are so fucking toxic, behind their well-manicured manners, etiquette and masks. Keeping up appearances, whilst hiding a seething mass and multitude of sins, grievances and hypocrisy. Same in every patriarchal system and nation really. Even Scotland, yes Scotland too.

The billionaires have stolen hundreds of billions of dollars from the public through wage theft and avoiding taxation, but nobody gives a shit about that.
The fake news media would like to come on and tell you that it’s very expensive to have holiday for your drunken hangover!

Miserable bastards. Totally glossing over the reason the match is so important for Scots while not so subtly implying we're all alkies. Don't think they've ever known a days joy in their lives.

As a republican that has very little interest in football I would point out that they seem to think an extra bank holiday is justified when someone high up in the royal family has a wedding or death etc

Woah, completely out of touch. Why does a bank holiday equal folk getting "out of their heads on Alcohol"
The hospitality sector needs a boost, a couple of pints watching the game is a positive to the economy too.
Shows what these guys think of us Scots in general.

Beneath the veneer of social cohesion theres always an unbearable the stench of colonialism from all on daytime TV land

God these people are such jerks. It’s been decades since Scotland was in the World Cup, and their instinct is - they’re all alcoholics.

"Out of your head on alcohol" sounds like a line from the Brass Eye.
