Since the late 70's extra funds have been directed out to Wales, NI and Chillyjockoland according to the Barnett formula. Its calculated that for each individual in the countries of Britain, the spend which is beneficial goes like this.... England £7,121 Scotland £8,623 Wales £8,139 In other words your average sheepshagger gets a grand more than you for things such as urban redevlopment...health, education etc. Title: Cardiff Post by: neville w on Friday, April 18, 2008, 12:42:57 And we still have to pay to go into the country - do the English or the Welsh get that Reg ?
On balance I'd choose to pay to leave Wales rather than enter it.

Not sure which pot the dual language road signs for Poles is coming from.

Title: Cardiff Post by: Mexicano Rojo on Friday, April 18, 2008, 16:51:36 i think you will also find that scotland give about approx £50,000 to each and every one of us in oil and gas revenue.

Well I haven't had mine yet! I'll look forward to the cheque....unfortunately Scotland doesn't exist for the purposes of claims on natural resources only Britain does....this would be one of the arguments of the SNP. I'd give them independence tomorrow. |
