The Scots enjoy a better quality of life than the English, EU officials claimed yesterday.

Published more than three months after the Brexit referendum, the European Commission’s report is meant to give European leaders ‘a roadmap that can be used to navigate the pressures and opportunities facing Europe’.

The authors said that when the English and the Scots are assessed on their ‘tolerance towards minorities and homosexuals, attitudes towards people with disabilities and the extent of the gender gap, Scotland comes out on top’. It rated education in Scotland as better than in England, giving Scotland higher scores for the number of students in higher education, the likelihood of people continuing to learn after finishing formal schooling, and on school enrolment rates.

Scotland also gained higher scores for opportunity, access to basic knowledge, and health and wellness, despite its poor life-expectancy levels. Environmental quality – including air pollution levels and the protection of natural habitats – and personal freedom and choice were also rated better in Scotland.

This is not news, just common knowledge.

Now it's official, Dev.

Now it's official, Dev.

Couldn't be happier in all truth. Everyone knows the quality of life up here is better, what with all the fresh air and scenery, that's why it's a MacMecca for the retiring Nigels.

England is basically a feral wasteland, a horrible cider-fuelled mash-up of The Omega Man and Mad Max.

Whenever I feel the urge to visit London I either book in to the local mental institution or stick Fallout3 on the computer.

Meh.

Here in London we get better weather, more hot foreign women (no for long though ), better football, better transport links and less Scottish people. (popping trap placed)

You can keep your Old Firm, toothless women and Somalian life expectancy

EU report doesn't lie, T. Scotland now officially a better country than The Land of Nigel.

Not that the report means Scotland is a good place to live, just that it is clearly superior to Guffshire.

The population of your average, UKIP led council, town in England looks like this now. Sad times indeed.

I don't give a **** about better Uni places for non-scottish people (we all know that's the case), fresher air or nicer people around me tbh

Moon worshipping and apple scrumping will become more prevalent as the social fabric and what's left of England's pitiful culture declines into an dystopian nightmare.

Is it nice, or does it resemble London?

It's stunning.

London is the drain in the middle of the abattoir floor. The bit where all the blood, **** and offal is drawn to and becomes a reeking, visceral amalgam masquerading as a city.

I'm in England today ...

Just sayin
