The Commonwealth is just an excuse for Britain to believe it is still a massive country in World affairs by remembering the days where it used to be. It's not anymore. Should just cancel the whole thing.

An Empire is different to a Commonwealth

Any member country can leave whenever they want, so why do they stay in if it is so bad!

It had Nessie in it. What's not to like?

I must have been unlucky then when I went to Glasgow. There was a poisonous atmosphere nearly everywhere I went and i saw full blown fights almost every bar club I went in.

Not for me......but that happens everywhere I guess.

Fair enough, the times I've been to Birmingham been the same for me, but that was in broad street which had a really horrible undercurrent to it. Pick any big British city on a Saturday night at kick out time....


...we could learn a lot from the continental cities

Sauchiehall street at 3am on saturday night is one of the sights in Glasgow certainly

At least Oor Wullie made it!!

The only people who refer to glaswegisns as friendly are themselves.

Manchester was suddenly 'the Friendly City' when it hosted the Commonwealth Games.

Never before though, and never since.

India should clean up really (over half the commonwealth population)

India will win the gold medal in the Slow Left-Hand Javelin event.
