According to the Sunday papers, there are 89 free prison places in Scotland, but because of some stupid law, English prisoners can't be sent there. This is despite the fact that English taxes subside these prisons - as they do most services in Scotland. ![](smileys/smiley7.gif)
The Scots are always whingeing on about wanting more independence - well perhaps they should get it, and have to survive on the taxes their dwindling 5 million population pay instead of getting subsidies from the English and doing nothing in return.
