Scrap the Barnett formula - all regions of the UK should get equal funding

Closed 62 signatures

What the petition asks

All the people of these isles are equal so they should get an equal amount spent on them. The Barnett formula has created inequalities where Scotland gets much more than other parts of the UK. This has led to cuts in services in other parts of the UK and needs to be resolved as soon as possible
