    While England and NI were being outed as two of the stupidest places in the western world a Scot was receiving a big cheque and a nobel prize .

    Prof Peter Higgs won the gong for physics and his theories on the Higgs Boson particle (the God particle). Higgy put forward this theory 50 years ago and was proved correct last year when the particle was found last year in Geneva .

    So well done to the Higster . Just the latest in a long line of Scottish genius .

    Think how far this tiny nation could have went if it wasn't handcuffed to the numpty neighbours . <doh>

    But what about the North Eat of England, you can't just leave them, probably detest the English goverment as much as the Scots do.

    Not so clever really if he discovered this particle 50 years ago then lost it only for it to turn up in Geneva five decades later. Pretty careless if you ask me.

    Wtf was God doing hiding in Geneva, with the nazi gold? And being found by a Scottisher? Explains why the world's so ****ed up.

    If we keep winning at all this important stuff then it's maybe best we break free and stop being held back by the ****y English <ok>

    Maybe. After all, he'd hardly need a watch, seeing as he trancends time and space.

    Aye, he is. He's Scottish in the same sense that JK Rowling and Rod Stewart are 'Scottish'.

    Very interesting. I am sure being a Scot you can explain in more detail exactly what's this Higgs Boson particle is and it's relevance to particle physics?

    I.e. they hated being English so much, they decided to be Scottish.

    Being scottish isn't an exclusive club, anyone who can make a positive impact is welcome. To that end

    Not really. He considers himself Scottish.

    A bit like any successful person from Northern Ireland considers himself English.
