Of course after all no one in Scotland pays Income Tax, Capital Gains Tax, Fuel Tax, NI or any of the other taxes that Wesminster has imposed on us! The only people who pay all the above taxes are the English, the irish Welsh and Scots all rake it in off the system!

We ALL pay income tax and all the other taxes. For some reason though Scotland seems to get a far higher percentage of these taxes returned, which enables the Scots to benefits that the English are not entitled to. Similarly with the Welsh.

Must let my accountant know that I do not need to pay taxes according to 'wardmaster'.

Whisky, North Sea Oil and Gas! What does England export? Gin? Oh and football hooligans (Yes I know about the Rangers fans the other week but as most Rangers fans class themselves as English they are classed as English hooligans) ;-)

I wonder if an injured Welsh/Irish/English veteran living in Scotland with his/her spouse would be eligible for this ?

North Sea oil is just that; it is from the North Sea. Because it comes ashore in Scotland doesn't make it Scottish. Because bananas come ashore in Southampton doesn't make them English.

So it belongs to the North Sea? The sea area is divided up and most of the UK oil would have belonged to an independent Scotland.
Getting back to the original article - it says 'injured veterans' are to get free travel - but then goes on to say that the disabled already get it anyway. So it very much depends on what is classed as 'injured'. Jolly Jack falling over pissed and breaking his arm in Guzz aged 18 is presumably not going to quailify?
