Any undue interference on this subject is coming from the govt OK, lets try and find out what the British Medical Association think about alcohol pricing then. I'm sure they have no interest in promoting healthy living or influencing government thinking on this subject The BMA position Wow, I'm shocked! The BMA think your cheap litre bottle of whisky in Carlisle should cost at least... [drumroll] ... £20.00 Colour me surprised. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're so adamant that prescriptions should be paid for, simply donate £9.00 to a medical charity every time you get a free one in Scotland. That way the NHS could benefit and you'll have had the satisfaction of putting your money where your mouth is. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not at all but there is a fine line between raising extra money and chasing people away.. We should be looking to retain and attract high earning taxpayers. For those earning over 100k I’m not sure Scotland is such an attractive place to be 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
