A bloggee has commented: ' It is all very well asking incomers (by which the letter writer in the Berwickshire to whom Huttonian referred, with his analogy of the Orkneys ,infers are the English townees) to be sensitive to attitudes and practices of the comunities within which they settle-how about asking the locals to be themselves sensitive to the needs, aspirations and activities of the incomers? And why does the letter writer feel that now is the time to unearth a twenty year old anthopoligical study which makes, frankly, racist assumptions. If the writer substituted 'Immigrant Muslim' for 'English' there would be hell to pay? Many of the positive things done in this area are done by incomers (yes, including the English) and especially in the Borders. More acceptance please all round. PS the incomers at Flodden were the Scots! '
