I've been doing some research for a future book on Anglophobia in Scotland. I thought I'd share some findings. A thread on Anglophobia and its relationship with Scottish nationalism (lower case 'n') in Scotland [1/25]

While the SNP is not Anglophobic per se, Anglophobia seems to be a feature and not a bug with Scottish nationalism.

Looking at the data:
Look at this multivariate analysis of Islamophobia and Anglophobia in Scotland
It has been taken from 'Findings and Economic Research Programme on Devolution & Constitutional Change , briefings No.24, March 2005'

We can conclude from this table:
Scottish identity comes close to rivalling low levels of education as an influence towards Anglophobia
Having an English friend reduces Anglophobia by about as much as having a Muslim friend reduces Islamophobia.

I'd love to see the UK gov sponsor school exchanges within the UK during summer holidays. I think a lot of kids in West Belfast and Glasgow would benefit from making friends outside their immediate surroundings.

Yorkshire exchanging with Edinburgh. Belfast with Bristol, Glasgow with Manchester.

Exactly. Would be worth some central funding especially in areas of high social deprivation that fuels nationalism.

My school exchanges to Germany were formative. Learned a lot, changed my outlook big time. Eventually helped me start a family. @TheBluetrot I think this is worth exploring more.
