Nine out of ten Scottish households take more in benefits than they pay in tax | Mail Online

Send 'em all back I say.

If its true then I suggest Scotland will be offered independence as soon as they like. They will adjust quickly and get back to profitability pretty soon.

I guess it is possible because normally the top 1% pay so much of the tax take. But unlikely. I suppose if you combine the public sector jobs with the benefits it might make sense. They did stuff Scotland with public sector jobs.

Scotland is bankrolled by the oil industry.

This is why they want independence. They want to live off benefits for another 30 years.

That's right. The whisky industry and tourism contribute **** all to the UK economy. Twat.

The Scottish oil industry financed everything that Thatcher did for starters.

Out of curiosity i looked up how much Scottish tourism and Whisky contribute to the UK economy.

You're right, they do contribute **** all.

I thought the truncheons the police used on the miners were made from rubber not oil

What % of people in Scotland do you think work in the whisky business? We're talking % of people, not % of GDP.

Interesting to know where these "official figures" may be found. Ministers like to say things with numbers in as if they are fact, like a recent comment that overseas aid pays for itself 4 times over. Utter nonsense.
