sjc Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 Aye but you nuggets always miss out the 2nd part of that. There is more money generated in Scotland than it receives back. The same can be said of London......which dwarfs every other Region in comparison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Banterous Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 We have a stronger economy right now and will continue to do so. Hopefully in 20 years or so when the UKs housing bubble and over reliance on financial services goes pop, we'll have done enough to insulate ourselves. The UK economy and sterling are on a very shoofly peg for the foreseeable. ^^^ Key word highlighted So Scotland are going to be a shining beacon even though the UK economy goes belly up? The one that has the currency we'll be using? oh ok. Couple of flaws in your predictions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anonapersona Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 The same can be said of London......which dwarfs every other Region in comparison. London aren't having a referendum to split from the union. I'm sure they'd be fine on their own though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

git-intae-thum Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 And other nuggets seem to think that Scotland is bankrolling the UK Scaremongering lies, no doubt ????You obviously did not read the final paragraph of your own link. (what is the enlightened source by the way) Scotland received 9.2% of the public purse. Scotland contributed 9.4% to the public purse. Scotland provides a net subsidy to the rest of the UK. As it has for over 30 years. Hundreds of billions of pounds you scrounging barstewards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

git-intae-thum Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 Whats .2% between mates, yer tight git! No. Jog on... The issue here is that those backing the union consistently do not mention that Scotland is a net contributer. The main stream media fail to report it and allow the myth to be perpetuated that Scotland is subsidised. That is not the action of "mates" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
