Throw your arms around the world at Christmas time!
When families across the United Kingdom sit down to their Christmas feasts tomorrow, more than likely they will do so accompanied by traditional festive anthems by artists such as Slade, Wizzard, the Pogues, Darkness, Mud, Boney M, Paul McCartney and Chris Rea, but the song that’s at the top of the charts for the season of goodwill this year is already a huge favourite, although it’s taken 39 years to get to the top of the hit parade.

Economic governance in the 21st century
Economic governance in the 21st century A global problem waiting to be solved. While this is a worldwide concern, it is a good example to take the exposure of the financial mess, the socialist devolved government of Scotland, is in. (December 2023) This raises genuine concerns about socialist economics. The usual cry of tax the rich is just politics of envy.

Socialist economic do not work in the real world. The SNP in Scotland claim they want total and complete independence from the rest of Britain, they suggest they will have a vibrant and wonderful economy full of advantages for the Scottish people. Recent revelations show that even with huge subsidies from British taxpayers, they still cannot manage their state-run services properly. They have resorted to the usual complaints that they are not given enough of British taxpayer’s money. If they have independence, they will have Zero money from English tax income. Do they expect the EU will welcome them and provide all the money they need? Do they honestly think French and German taxpayers are going to agree to this?
