By the way, I am not a Scot and I live in South-East England.

Your last point is ridiculous. We are still living in the United Kingdom and so 'English' money goes to Scotland and Wales and 'Welsh' and 'Scottish' money goes to England. Personally, I don't begrude my fellow Britons any of my money. I would much rather our taxes were spend on them than building a new underground system for Warsaw!
