So are we all moving to Scotland in April?

Who in their right mind would even consider moving from sunny Surrey to Windy hell hole ?

If that entire area was blasted with nuclear bomb nobody would bat an eyelid.

I would love to move there. Great country. Wonderful people.

Then I remembered that there are a lot of racists there and as soon as they spot my Sarf London accent I am in trouble.

I would rather move to Scotland than North London though. t0ssers.

I'd have thought DP would love it there. It's nice and uncrowded, and far fewer immigrants.

I don't get where all this anti English Racism idea comes from.

As my late father used to say, 'I'm not bigoted, I hate everyone equally.'

But honestly, I think its an assumption made by those down south. Maybe I contract in Edinburgh too much (which is pretty multi-cultural) but some of my best friends are English... Mind you all the nice Englishman I know are up here so what does that say?

No nice Englishman wants to know you - except those poor desperate souls that have been abandoned in Sweatyland and have lost all inhibitions.

When you hold the view "all the Scots hate us" it's not surprising they aren't nice to you

As I understand it, the Bands stay the same but the tax rates can vary. The new rules effectively lop 10p off of all the tax rates and the Scottish Parliament are then free to change them from there. They could leave it at that, so making the rates 10%, 30% etc. or add more to make it 25% 45% etc or anything inbetween.

There was a consultation recently about what people / organisations thought the rate should be, and how they should spend the extra money if it was more than the 10% and what should be cut to pay for less than 10%. I know the CBI put in a response, but I'm not sure what their recommendations were.
