So the Scottish-descended person was kind to the Irish-descended person and did her best to ease his pain, but the English-descended person had no regard for the Irish-descended person's pain and acted cruelly?

Tbf the English have no regard for English people's pain too.

We are an apathetic people. I could easily see that continuing into the 24th century!

That's why Picard was dubbed as French despite him clearly being English. He was disowned by his homecountry for giving too much of a shit about people.

That's my new head cannon lol. I take issue with Picard being fr*nch but that's still better than English "people"

To be fair, Julian isn’t exactly british. Judging by the name bashir, and his parents, he is likely supposed to have an Indian or perhaps middle eastern ethnicity, but I agree that his accent sounds very british to my euro ears.
