I’ve just read the’ comments’ to this, on the Orkney News Facebook page.
I have a question.
How far back do ‘incomers’ go?
You could say that they/we weren’t wanted then, either – marauding Vikings come to mind – but, many were wanted – were traders, settlers ( new ‘blood’), people who got businesses going, the Hudson Bay people.
Maybe if you take the chip off your shoulder, you could get a wider view.
