| Comment | > Gaelic is a sign of non-British identity and culture, so suppressing and even straight up killing it is key to enforcing a unionist identity.
It was the Scottish Parliament in 1616, almost a century before the Act of Union, which decreed that Gaelic should be "abolishit and removit" from Scotland, and it was Labour, a Unionist party, which introduced the Gaelic Language (Scotland) Act in 2005. |
