Is greater London exactly the same as Cornwall?
Scotland has sufficient tax base and legal structures to go it alone, whilst Wales arguably doesn't.
In your list, you exclude politics.
- kmlx 4y ago> Is greater London exactly the same as Cornwall? considering how many people from London move to Cornwall, and judging by the number of Teslas on the road, yeah, it's pretty similar. > Scotland has sufficient tax base and legal structures to go it alone, whilst Wales arguably doesn't. there are lots of countries that went at it alone. that doesn't mean those countries have been successful. one can even argue that an ever closer European Union made lots of small countries be more successful by giving up part of their power. also, there's no such thing as "alone" in this day and age. > In your list, you exclude politics. less politics, better for everyone.
- dubeye 4y agoCornwall is one of the poorest areas in the United Kingdom and London is one of the richest. So not too similar in that respect. Success is a different question, but the point made that most economists accept Scotland 'could' do it. Wales not so much. > less politics, better for everyone. We are discussing politics right now :)
