@easy1355 Not a useless language, a fairly large language within the country that was nearly wiped out by people who made the Gaels feel inferior and outlawed the culture. But fortunately Gaelic is on the rise again. 59 Scottish schools are Gaelic medium, in 1975 there were 2 Gaelic speaking schools in Scotland. That is progress, hard fought progress, but still progress. If you are a Gael you can speak to the Irish, people from Isle of Man, people from Nova Scotia, people from Canada, etc.

@gramule No, not very selective percentiles. The facts. We could look at the whole picture of taxes, subsidies and grants etc........... but we don't have to. The United Kingdom's Statistics Agency does that for us. And lo and behold it shows that Scotland raised 9.4% of the UK's total revenue and gets 9.3% of the UK's spending. And that doesn't take into account the Licence Fee subsidy that we provide to the BBC in London.
