    Shetland are not playing in the world cup so,although I love Shetland,I am displaying an England flag on my car. My picture also appeared in the English version of the Sun waving an England flag with Shetland written across the centre. This was taken on Norwick beach.

    The first step toward marginalizing a group is to take away their language. Australians did it to the Aborigines, and my country did it to the Native Americans. There's an incredibly slippery slope here; marginalizing a language marginalizes its people, which implies they're inferior, which leads to persecution, or even genocide.

     

    Linguistic diversity is a treasure, my friend, and a fundamental human right.

     

    Does this not tally with the treatment of Norn and Shaetlan? The Scots certainly marginised the Shetland people,and are still so doing.
