Petition Demand a public apology from David Cameron over Scots 'Stupid' Slur

More details

On September 14th 2011, David Cameron stated 68% of Scots opinions are "stupid".

Although David Cameron, whom descends from Scottish ancestors, did not explicity state 'Scots are stupid', upon being asked his thoughts on the fact 68% of Scots surveyed said they wanted oil revenue to stay north of the Border (ie. in Scotland), Cameron stated "If you ask a stupid question, you get a stupid answer" while many (the majority) MP's laugh and heckle throughout both the question being asked and the answer being provided by David Cameron.

We demand a public apology, on behalf of not only 68% of Scotlands population, but 100%, for David Cameron - British Prime Minister - devaluing our national opinion.
