I notice we spend:

£26.1 billion on Scotland;
£14 billion on Wales; and
£9.9 billion on Northern Ireland

but nothing at all on England. I feel discriminated against...

Its amazing what you can do with figures, and the picture you can paint

For example, the budget deficit for Scotland show £10.9 billion more going in than coming out! Thieving Reivers

But if you research further you find that after oil revenues there's a £9.2 billion surplus going to the Treasury, and thats after covering the £10.9 billion. Don't you just love the Scots Warm hearted, and generous folk

Just don't mention the Welsh

Wouldn't a better way to write the table be to say we give £56,2 billion of International Aid?
