Independence for Scotland / London

[imagine]

I was just listening to a political debate on TV. They mentioned Scottish independence and possibility of London regulating it's own tax system, for the benefit of London.

Out of curiosity, I checked and found the population of Scotland is 5.2 million , whilst London has 8.1 million. (incidentally Wales has 4 million)

If Scotland get impendence, London might have a better argument to do the same !

yeah but london isn't a country , scotland is
