Always? I take it by UK, you mean England and the English? If you do, I must disagree. There are many Scots in the present British Government passing laws that affect the English but not the Scots. This is in spite of there being a devolved Scottish Parliament at which the English (rightly) have no say.

Our present British Prime Minister is Scots, as was the last one... The Chancellor is also Scots and there are many other Scots amongst the Politicos in Westminster. The Scots or the Irish and whoever (would that be the Welsh?) to which you refer can hardly be "hit and miss" about themselves, seeing as we are all British and therefore all members of the UK (United Kingdom). Mmmmm must be those nasty English eh?
