Can this really happen?
And if so will we be hit with more increases for the government coffers

Can't see how they can cancel a local tax and come to central government for top ups......Nutters the SNP.....I give them my whole hearted support in their clamour for complete independence mind, and I would vote for English independence, so I can't blame them.

They say there will be 'localised income tax' to replace it

Could be interesting in the lesser populated areas, and if they opt out of central income tax they must have central government funding cuts.

The Scottish Parliament is royally taking the p*ss and has been since it was formed.
The ENGLISH taxpayer is underwriting their spendthrift ways to the tune of billions of £'s a year and still they think up new ideas to wave the begging bowl.
I love Scotland as a place and find the Scots as a race generally warm, welcoming and humourous, but their politicians need a damn good slap.
The sooner they get independence and have to survive off their own revenues, the better.

Never a better time for Scotland to get independence. Oil prices are high, so the fields within their waters will generate high returns. So far as England is concerned, never a better time either, owng to excessive funds diverted from English generated revenues in suppoort of Scottish welfare, education etc being at an all time high.
Bring it on.
