Tittle tattle? 6:11pm on 02 Jul 2008 And watch how the speakers saves Brown.

Even Brown is expecting to speak again and stands up. But the speaker brings in another question.

Shamefull

Voting changes 11:12pm on 01 Jul 2008 Arghhhhhhhhhh

Why does another layer of government always seem to be the solution.

The Scotish parliment is set to cost 430 Mil this year to run this year and they are asking for a big increase.

The building cost about the same budget 50 mil final cost 414 Mil

Anyone got an idea that involves us employing less politicians

Not hard to come up with a binding contract after youve spent 7 yrs training is it? And still that contract remains unchanged today.

Reminds me of the article I posted on the GP contracts. Poor quality government negotiations seems to be a theme with Nu labour.

Agreed Harold Wilson is not relavant and nor is Thatcher. Lets not mention either again.

Voting changes 8:34pm on 01 Jul 2008 In 2005 the English subsidised the Scots by 2200 per head (Doubled since 1997)

Browns spending means Scotlands budget is at Scandinavian levels at a time when Scotlands tax burden is below that of Poland.

In 2003-4 the Government spent 45 billion, putting Scotland in the rare position where state spending is more than half of GDP.

Only 34 billion was generated in tax.

The remaining 11.3 billion was subsidised by English taxpayers.

Anyone see a connection between voting patterns and spending
