To revoke the Barnett Formula for Scotland

Closed 45 signatures

What the petition asks

Scotland has an unfair advantage due to the excessive money given to Scotland by the Barnett Formula. They use this to spend in uncontrolled ways, i.e. Free prescriptions and tuition fees. This is grossly unfair to the people of England and should be stopped with immediate effect.
