Catcher mate, I reckon I could take a handy guess and say the numbers wouldnt stack up and you would loose a lot of the perks (for want of a better word) that you currently enjoy + you would be getting taxed through the nose
OR
You would need to swell the population so much by importing immigrant to get extra tax revenue
OR
You would need to run to the EU
I think your culture up there is one of the strongest on these isles, certianly stronger than England......
Hi WILF.As you say its only a handy guess.Most politician,s can number crunch to make any deal look goo
