Ahh, James Bond. Scottish father, Swiss mother, raised partly in Scotland (and around the world), yet he (now) dives around in an English accent shouting "for England".
I like that the new film tried to bring in his Scottish roots, but in a way it just made it a bit more unbearable to me.
'People are just not informed about this country's [Britain's] real role in the world. They are provided with systematically distorted views and information about the past and present that makes it easier for elites to pursue their policies in their interest and often against the public interest.' - Mark Curtis, page 356, 'Web of Deceit'.
