weerover - cut the Jocks loose altogether? But I just love the Gov't sending a bit of my taxes north of the border to support free Uni education, higher standards of care for Scottish elderly etc. etc..I'm afraid that Scottish tax revenues alone would not support the various initiatives taken by the Scottish parliament so the rest of us will continue to subsidise our Caledonian friends' generous treatment of old folk and students north of the border. Some hope of the Gov't introducing the same measures here but I think the Scots are showing us the way on this - even at our expense!
