      That's a interesting point. If we took all 59 Scottish seats out of Westminster then the number of Conservative seats in the house would decrease by just 1....

      Big win for the Tories - I don't know why they don't just cut Scotland off then.

Indeed, in the last 10 - 15 years improvements to services has been very noticeable.
        If you are for one minute suggesting that services in Scotland have improved due to devolved government then you are clearly further beyond the point help than I though.

            I'm not, my parents are. In fact much of my old neighbourhood say similar and many of them are not Scottish. But that's Edinburgh for you, a suburb of Englandshire.

                    I don't know - finding it difficult to separate Narnia from reality with your posts.
