The government has come up with a list of 12 ideas for how the Scots could spend the £1400 a year that they take from our taxes. They include watching football, eating pies and Bovril, eating hotdogs at the Edinburgh Festival, but strangely they have omitted the deep-fried Mars bars.

Excuse me but I do not see anywhere in that report that the Scots will be getting £1400 from the taxman! All I see is a statement saying Scots would be £1400 per year better off if they stayed in the UK.

All these statements for and against Independce bandy all these differing amounts to try and make the vote swing one way or the other.

The City of London claim all the Wealth, made by Businesses across the Country, that just happen to have their main Offices in the City

 

That money is never counted in these figures

 

Equally, the mioney the City sucks from the English regions, should count as Regional Wealth not the Citys
