No Brian you're misrepresenting me. I'm objecting to your statements
including.

What support? GAE isn't the only item in the expense sheet. What about
tax revenues from Scottish oil since the it came ashore?

I can understand English only matters but UK matters why? What gives the
right for the English to greater influence on matters that affect the
whole of the UK?

Who's bailed out who. The IMF had to bail out the UK in the 70's and its
oil money that repaid that debt. Who gets the juicy MOD navel bases and
associated income and who gets the major MOD nuclear targets and nuclear
waste with little or no local benefit.

As for going it alone I'm not in favour but it would bother me to much
if we did. The last time we met at Potters Bar I had to take my passport
with me to fly down to England and I had change my Scottish money into
English money, so what's the difference?
