To Add

Gross-Value-Added calculations provided by government statisticians show London with a GVA of 136, South-East England with 115, and Scotland with 99 (100 being the UK average). So the Scots are less productive with then the UK as a whole. [Source: The Economist].

Scottish GDP-PPP/capita is only US$33,680 to England's $38,000 [Source: The Economist].
In those stats, where does money from oil revenue from english companies working off the coast of scotland end up? Does it show on the scottish figures or the english ones?
