Why the Saltire?
Hello and welcome to the first episode of The Scottishist. In every episode of The Scottishist I’m taking a dive into an icon of Scottish culture to find out why it is just so iconic - and I’ll be bringing the answers - right to your ear holes.
For the first episode we are getting under the blankets with the vexillology crew and looking the flag of Scotland right in it’s blue and white face. What’s the story, why do we fly the Saltire? And when did we start? What’s is got to do with Saint Andrew? What shade of blue is it exactly, does it matter? And what does the saltire actually mean in Scotland today?
