I like this show. But I'm sick of hearing English people peddling the untruth that Scotland is funded by English taxes. It is ientirely false. The Barnet Formula is under 60% of our own gdp given back. Not a hand out. Westminster keeps the rest. Plus the control all the revenue of our industry and rich resources. Today a vile Tory woman on the panel stating that our government hands out "freebies because of the handout Scotland gets. Scotland is being drained and robbed. The contempt in their attitude to Scots is palpable. Scotland is greatly subsidising Westminster and none of it goes to the English taxpayer either. It lines greedy pockets. Our government gives what they do to those less well off from having just over 50% of our income we get back. It's called social consciousness and humanity. Why is this program allowing uninformed guest to speak as though authotitively on misinformation and never corrected on the show. This union costs Scotland nearly half is gdp that is the actual truth and our government has to run the country on what isn't taken by Westminster. No easy task but we have enormous respect for our first ministers who do all they can with that huge shortfall. Time this show called out panelists on misinformation
