I *love* how people down south claim they prop up Wales and Scotland, maintaining deficits with their money when England itself borrows money from all over the world and and near bankrupted itself in debt was illegal wars & pie in the sky projects.
The higher they rise, the harder the fall.
I love how remoaners don't understand facts.
We may be borrowing to pay for your deep fried mars bars but we are subsidising you according to all the figures.
Scotland: Tax and spending - Full Fact
In recent years more money has been spent in Scotland than has been collected, whether or not you count money collected from the North Sea oil and gas industries.
This has also been the case over the last 18 years if you look at the revenue collected and money spent per person in Scotland.

but don't worry Wales was only the second worst.
The largest deficit was recorded in Northern Ireland, of £5,437, followed by Wales, which also recorded the lowest tax-take per person, with a shortfall of around £4,500.
"The deficit per head in Scotland was £2,824 last year,"
let me guess all lies?
