Can't post links but Cathy Newnans C4 news blog from 12 May 2011 has lots of relevant information on Scottish expenditure.
United we stand divided we fall as far as I can see.
You don't believe we'd survive as an independent country? Why? Are we too small? Too stupid? Do we not have any natural resources? Do we have nothing to export? No tourism? Why? Why would we not survive when, if we take oil and gas into account, Scotland is one of the wealthiest European countries?
