Petition Action

The UK Government to stop subsidising the rail link to Scotland if Scotland goes independent.

Additional Information

The UK Government (the tax payer) subsidises the railway system to over 4 billion pounds a year.
Why should the UK government pay to keep the rail line open to Scotland if it goes independent?
If the rail line is profitable, a subsidy should not be needed.
