He has been appointed as editor of the Spectator, replacing another right-wing Scot, Fraser Nelson.

Ah yes, Fraser Nelson who was informed by SNP thicko Tricia Marwick that being born in Scotland does not alone a Scotsman make.
The silly cow …he was born in Truro as his RAF father was serving there…

Yeah I`d say that comment is fair enough. Being born somewhere alone does not make you that nationality. I mean wouldn`t class former Scotland and Rangers captain Richard Gough as being Swedish.
Had Nelson`s father been stationed in Germany and so he had been born in Germany but then spent the next twenty years living in Scotland I wouldn`t class him as German.

And although my eyes were open
They just might as well be closed
