APRIL 2022: THE UK GOVERNMENT SHORT-CHANGES SCOTLAND WITH ITS EU FUNDING REPLACEMENT Scotland’s economy, communities and young people are paying a heavy price for a Brexit we never voted


for, but on top of all this damage, Scottish taxpayers had to pay for a £3 billion “Brexit divorce bill”. During the 2016 Leave campaign, Brexiteers have promised £1.5 billion a year for


Scottish devolved services when the UK left the EU. Fact is, all that was announced for Scotland is £172 million. For every £1 the UK government promised, they’ve given Scotland 11p –


meaning Scotland has been short-changed by 89%. What’s more, the UK Government has defined a series of “levelling up missions” covering devolved matters – such as education, health and


justice – without the agreement of the Scottish Parliament, and without even consulting it over their plans. While Labour and Tories team up to back the hard Brexit, only independence is our


way to rejoin the EU. > 🥀 It’s clear that Brexit wrecks our economy and living > standards, but Labour supports it anyway. >  > 👎 As Starmer and Sarwar team up with the Tories,
