Why so?

Surely the money used for furlough from central funds would never have gone to Wastemonster but would have been retained in an independent Scotland and would therefore have been available for The Scottish Government's use?

I just don't get this idea of yours that if Scotland was independent it would still send all its money to Westminster and would have none to use - it would never leave Scotland.
