Letter from Scotland

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

1: A Parcel of Rogues. Robert Burns mocked the Scots
"rogues" who supported the Treaty of Union between Scotland and England in 1707, but also praised the British constitution when it suited him. Scotland today remains clearly different from the rest of the UK- but how different? Are the Scots a proud people denied their birthright, or simply whingeing Jocks? In the first of four programmes, Colin MacKay reflects on the fabric of Scottish life.
