Wendy Alexander (Scottish Labour leader at the time of writing but it's so difficult to keep up) has started down the road that will lead to
fiscal autonomy for Scotland:The controversial 29-year-old system for the Treasury granting money to Scotland would be replaced by significant new powers for Scotland to set levels for some taxes and to be assigned a share of other taxes set in London.
I believe that English opinion will force financial autonomy on us whether we want it or not. We may as well get used to it.
