    There is a net inflow to Scotland from England

    England to Scotland 49,596

    Scotland to England 37,992

    Now I wonder why? Stable house prices perhaps, fewer people, fresh air, sleeper cells, who knows, prey English members do tell us.

      Not if this proves viable in the next 10 years.

        I thought that was 50 years away, 50 years ago?

          Looks like the latest phase is 50% complete; results in a year or two.

              I dont know much about Scottish politics and I dont know much about economics, but I do know a lot about history. There are a few other countries that were prospering under the English, and they foolishly decided to go their own way

              USA- now full of 35 stone gutbuckets playing on the PS in their mommas cellar
              India - reduced to manning call centres and supplying curryhouse chefs
              Pakistan - has to rent out the best accomodation to dodgy saudi vagrants
              Eire-a national debt that will take a million years to pay off


              Scotland - be warned

                  Wales has Welsh gold, which is used to make rings for royal weddings. They'll be OK.
