But my Momma gives a disproprtionate amount back in order to fund this devolved Government, while the same central government is not paying a single penny to the English for comparable devolution purposes. And I say that as a Scotsman.
Didn't hear anyone complaining when the devolved Welsh government received funding from the central source - only seem to hear it when they're expected to spend some of it on themselves instead of someone else paying.
it's like the Welsh locals moaning under lockdown about the English nipping across into Wales. Yet when they fall ill with Covid they're only too happy to cross the border into England to stay in hospital at Hereford or Bristol.
This parochial talk is largely bollards, and is utterly annoying. We're a group of tiny islands, barely 1/7th the lands area of Texas, but everyone seems to bicker that everyone else is fractionally better off in some regard than they are, while conveniently forgetting how their own good fortune may in turn be better than their neighbours in other respects. Life ain't always fair, but you need to either get over it, or start complaining when the unfairness benefits you too. This selective bitching is pointless and unproductive, and is how we end up with the likes of the Donald or Boris in charge.
