Another wee 'mistake' propagated by the media. In terms of GVA (gross value added) in other words how much,on average, every person puts into the country, England contributes £20442 per head of population and Scotland £19744 without taking into account oil and gas revenues. When this is factored in the Scottish contribution is £24000 per head of population. In effect, we are subsidising our big southerly neighbour. (Those numbers are from 2009 and appear on a UK government website. WWW.statistics.gov.uk for all you doubters out there BTW look for Regional,sub-regional and local gross value added. Yes I am sad.
