True. I didn't like that either. Also, I do not watch the very end of the movie when Wallace is being tortued to death.

It's always been the bane of Scotland: The aristocrisy.
The English didn't just torture Wallace though. They cut him in pieces in spread them through-out Scotland. Seemingly his balls were so big they covered the whole of Glasgow.
Originally posted by robbie carrobie yes its entirely possible and as you are aware as a socialist nation its one of the
reasons why Scotland has consistently opposed the conservatives for hundreds of
years. We simply dont trust them.
Indeed, those unbroken centuries of Scots opposition to conservatism really explain why the Scottish Unionist Party (as the Conservatives were known north of the border between 1912 and 1965) won majorities of Scottish parliamentary seats in 1924, 1931, 1935 and 1955 (in the latter election becoming the only party ever to take more that 50% of votes cast in Scotland).

with the demise of the clan system and people being turned out of their homes with
bailiffs letters of fire and sword, roughly one hundred years ago to make way for more
profitable sheep farming, these things are not so easily forgotten.
