Related. (One of my fav political quotes.)

I had to look up a source for this quote: www.scotsman.com/news/…/the-diary-2508490

Apparently it was said on radio, but it’s quoted in the article.

Admittedly I’m from the US, but from what I remember watching a Last Week Tonight episode about Scotland wanting to breakaway, and seeing how they tend to be treated by UK leadership, I totally get it. I think it’s more than fair that England cut their own grass

Besides where would you stop if you started cutting on the English side?

With a monarch?

Maybe just tell them you will only cut the Scottish side and cut an additional meter or 2 every time (moving the sign each time of course)

In the US is really common to have the actual road turn into a pristine asphalt ribbon or into a Sarajevo-in-the-90s pot holed mess as you cross county or state lines.

Funny but as has been pointed out before they both mow their own sides and probably on different days.
