Said like a true politician. If a comedian can be President of Ukraine, I don't see why a funnyman can't be Mayor of Glasgow.
A Glasgow funeral is better than an Edinburgh wedding fact
I've not heard that one in days.
Edinburgh’s where you go we your lass, Glasgow’s where you go we your mates
I used to live in Glasgow and visit Edinburgh and Limmy is 100% CORRECT. Glasgow is the fucking best, hands down, and Edinburgh is a nice place to go for the day to run around and see some art and whatever.
Didn't realise the English were bothered about Hogmanay. Nice of them to adopt some Scottish customs
We aren't
@@cmpc724 I was gonna find something to top that which would start this whole thing but nahhh, love the 'patter', love Scotland and its people, I guess you've got us there XD
I’ve worked all over the U.K. , Portugal, France and Ireland I have never ever felt so alone and homesick as I did in Edinburgh. ( Only 4 months ) I have lived in Glasgow for over 50 years.
if he's saying edinburgh's prettier he's not wrong
Visits a nightclub slap bang in the middle of the city centre during its busiest night of the year for tourists and complains about a lack of locals.
He only wanted a handshake poor guy
@@Kazza_8240 I was the only local there and I was going to shake his hand but I'm telling you his behaviour that night was shoakan eh
Weegies: We're better than Edinburgh
Edinburgh: What competition?
He's right about the centre, but there are parts that would make you think you were in the worst Glesga overspill estate, such as the areas around Saughton (the jail) and other schemie bits that I can't remember. Also, Leith feels almost like it is its own place and isn't really Edinburgh. Pretty sure I've heard people say that Leith isn't Edinburgh. Obviously Trainspotting and other works by Irvine Welsh were set in Edinburgh in the schemie bits and in the book they are all in and around Leith for the most part, but by the time I knew it (my auntie lived there), it was pretty well gentrified. But it still feels unique. People think of Edinburgh and they basically think of the Old Town and Princes Street, and the castle and all that. But that's a bit like thinking that London is just Hyde Park, Leister Square and the Southbank and whatever other touristy areas there are. Obviously London is huge and so has a lot of different places that wouldn't match with a tourist's idea of what the city was like but I think Edinburgh has that too, a wee bit. If you dropped a person in one of the schemes (can't remember the names, only that area around Saughton sticks out because it really was one of the schemiest bits I've seen in the whole of Scotland - it rivalled East Ayrshire in vibes), they wouldn't have a clue that they were in Edinburgh. They could be in Kilmarnock for all they knew.
But Glesga is just a different vibe. It really does capture what Scotland is like in city-form - the good, the bad and the ugly. Dundee is never rated highly enough IMO either. I think that a tourist can go to Edinburgh and get a kind of "Disney" version of Scotland if they only go to places on the map, or during the festival (f*ck that).
One other thing I remembered about Edinburgh that was quite charming was the bit in the old town by the public toilets. Its like a square - not sure exactly what the area is called but it's a square, with steps and public toilets and a few bars, up the hill from Holyrood pretty much. The place was just littered with people off their heads - drinking, people on heroin, and people actually sniffing glue or some kind of solvent openly. I thought that glue-sniffing stopped well by the early 2000s and this was probs 2014/15 or something. So there's a bit of that Trainspotting culture for you - I swear, some of the people there could've been characters from Trainspotting. Last time I went though, that whole area was empty so mibbie the cooncil cleaned it up or whatever. It was amazing to see though. I can't imagine that the tourists felt very comfortable around it, bless 'em.
He forgot to mention real Edinburgh people who live there. Me Glaswgian lived ther for four years, many good non tourist types, originals, still keeping the city Scottish forever and ferever.
Don't know about living, but they sure come to die in Glesga
The real Edinburgh is known by those in the know. Not the blow in Australian, English etc. It is a Scottish city- remember that you Glaswegians.
Leith is class
I grew up in Edinburgh but have lived in Glasgow for the last 9 years and I 100% approve this message. Would much rather be living here.
Hair lookin good man. 👍
What's it called? Hogmurray?
you canny spend 1 hour in glasgow before you hear someone greetin about rangers / celtic / queen / pope or worse a glasgow uni accent laughing
And I suppose the Edinburgh patter and uni accents are better?
@@mikeyteee95 Hibs Hearts patter is class.
@@mikeyteee95 No, but it's a objectively a nice place to live. Compared to the dump I live in it is paradise. Once the cost of living crisis, I'm moving.
No that's right Edinburgh is a place people come for a bit and then leave.
So fucking true.
I don't understand why Edinburgh gets to have Hogmany parties...technically being an English county and all that.
Do you remember that one Margaret
I almost went to uni at Strathclyde in Glasgow... I kinda regret not goin tbh
Hey I go there lol
Having lived in both, have to say I agree with him
HEAR, HEAR
Winds me up this Glasgow hatred for Edinburgh. Don't know anyone in Edinburgh who dislikes or bashes Glasgow despite not liking it as much. No point bitching about it , we're all part of Scotland - get on with it.
Except Edinburgh is part of England.
Live by the Glesga, die by the Glesga
Glesga is a giant council estate. There is a reason the Queen lay in rest in Edinboro
Dundee is like that, but instead of being fun it's just depressing and full of junkies. Even with Edinburgh being snobby and overpriced, I'd still choose it over both of them if given the chance.
We’re always living rent free in Glaswegians heads eh
Wrong way down a one way rivalry
Broon sauce on your chippy then end
Mare fun at a Glesga stabbin' than an Edinburgh weddin'
From a Glaswegian who lived in Edinburgh whilst studying, all I have to say is meh 😂
Calum says “Who cares”
I'm English and decided to move to Edinburgh mostly due to the profitable housing market and volume of Michelin Star restaurants. I find the the Scotch culture to be rather quaint and I am pleased to say I have even started to enjoy an occasional "oui dram" of authentic Famous Grouse blended malt. No plans to visit Glasgow.
'stain
I see your bait and I'm leaving well alone
English enclave.
Abit ironic being 1 of the murder capitals 💁
The problem with Glasgow is it’s full of Glaswegians
i've lived in edinburgh for 14 years. joke city. playground
Raging cos even after 14 years you've got nae mates.
@@Support-your-local-team ok
What’s the best thing to come out of Edinburgh? The train to Glasgow
Quality patter byraway
Cab Vol used to be good
People happy to admit the capital city of Scotland is actually in England?
That's got to hurt 😕
Naw, it's a bit of England in Scotland, you know, like a thorn in a dogs paw.
Literally no one is choosing to move to Glasgow lmao
Edinburgh has more attractive women. Fact.
