Who are some examples of the worst Scots?

Sir John A. MacDonald. First Prime Minister of Canada. Technically he was born in Scotland. And he was an absolute bastard.

James V/I, his rule saw the acquisition of Barbados and the widespread acceptance of slavery for that sweet sugar. He also greatly expanded the plantation system in Ireland.

Charles I was an absolutist so that's pretty fucking cringe

Andy Murray, he knows why
