If so were is the relevance to England ? It's the Scottish Parliament that are pursuing these changes, they've been in charge of their own affairs since July 1999 & are not influenced by events in England. The SNP hold sway in Scotland & it is their internal wrangling that are leading to this situation. I'm sorry, but I just can't see the reasoning of how this can be tagged onto the next 5 years of Englands Government.
Just so we're 100% sure !

Thanks to the Barnett formula, this will result in more money for Scotland, with SNP ministers deciding how this is spent.

This being the most important line.
