"for, as long as but a hundred of us remain alive, never will we on any conditions be brought under English rule. It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom - for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself."

When he first did Parliamo Glasgow I was in secondary school in England (St Albans to be precise) and not only was I the only Scot in the school I was recently decanted from Glasgow  - so that I had the very accent that SB parodied was fun since I was asked to 'speak Glaswegian'. and of course I exaggerated just like SB: happy days.
