I had to laugh (literally I did) to read that Sturgeon's expectation of gaining control of the northern UK waters was dismissed by the UK supreme court and she was told to forget about different immigration rules for Scotland into the bargain.
The Barnett Formula is quite a complicated system these days, perhaps you should study it before you call it as “back of a fag packet”. That’s not to say it’s fit for purpose. There is one sure fire way to rid yourselves of it of course. Another way would be to keep all tax raised in Scotland in Scotland, then we wouldn’t have to subsidise the likes of HS2. We would survive just fine. Anti Scots rhetoric doesn’t help your cause, I’m not anti English, it’s a beautiful country.
