Afleitch, could you please elaborate on the language used that alienated Labour's Catholic base?

Union. Flag. Queen. Tradition. British.

Thank you.

I was wondering if any of the Brits could answer this question:

Afleitch mentioned the Scottish Episcopal Church in another thread. Anglicans are typically seen as the Tories at prayer, while non-conformists and Catholics have historically favoured the Liberals and Labour respectively.

However, in Scotland, the Anglicans are not the state church. Has this affected their voting patterns? I assume Anglicans of English origin tend to vote Tory, but what about the Scottish ones? Are they hardcore Tories, or do they tend towards other parties? I assume they don't like the SNP very much.
