RBS - what might these initials stand for?

Philip Hampton the Chairman of RBS is quoted by the newly reopened National Museum of Scotland as follows:

“We are delighted to be joining forces with the National Museums of Scotland. RBS has a Scottish heritage going back almost 300 years so it is natural that we should be supporting this great institution.  We have changed the way we do sponsorship and are working much more in partnership with organisations to ensure maximum community benefit. Through this collaboration with the National Museums of Scotland we are aiming to encourage people of all ages to learn about Scotland’s history and Scotland’s contribution to the world. The redevelopment of the Museum will transform this wonderful Scottish asset into one of the world’s great museums and RBS is very proud to be a partner.”

Questions arising from the above:

Question (i) Is any one able to name a large UK commercial group which boasts of its 300 years of English heritage? 

Answer: None of course do, in view of British institutional racism against England.

Question (ii) Why should RBS be making huge grants to any museum when it is in such a poor condition, with its share price reaching new lows?

Answer: please call Sir Philip Hampton's office for an explanation.

Question (iii) Why doesn't England have its own National Museum of England?

Answer: please see answer to question (i) above.
