How exactly do you define 'us'?
And where does 'us' stop.
Is 'foreign aid' giving money to Scotland?
When it comes to looking 'after our own' those of us in the cozy South East might resent the money by our taxes being spent on 'them up north'.
Are you a red or a blue?
Are you English?
Are you British?
Are you a European?
Are you a resident of Earth?
We are all of those things, you don't need to be in the EU to be European, Scotland does get money from England just as England gets money from Scotland, we are all Red, White and Blue, we are part of this planet, we do have more money in the more affluent south east, but what extra they have they share.
We are all these things becaue we are British, no point in nit picking as to who gets what or from where, we all put money in and we all get money out just as any family would do.
It's worked so well for over 350 years that now millions of migrants from all over the world recognise what a wonderful place the UK is and seek to live here.
Lets not knock the place for being Great Britian.
