SNP leader Nicola Sturgeon who would like another referendum on Scottish independence
ALL the argy bargy surrounding potential independence for Scotland has totally ignored the elephant in the room.
Just who are the Scot Nats expecting to fund it all ?
There can be no possibility of the Barnett Formula, by which UK funding for Scotland is decided, surviving if the Scots become an independent state.
A balanced decision by the Scottish people cannot surely be made unless Scottish voters are made ware that many of the benefits they currently enjoy are (unlike their English counterparts) funded from Westminster.
