1/5 More deceit ? Cherry picked Stats ? This do not compare the 3 countries equally as Ireland and Norway have specific distortions to them. Norways Oil production is more than Twice as much as Scotlands and Norway produces its Oil at less than have the production cost
2/5 Norways Oil and UK Oil sector production Approx Volumes and costs can be found on this link https://knoema.com/rqaebad/cost-of-producing-a-barrel-of-crude-oil-by-country
SUMMARY : NORWAYS HIGHER OIL PRODUCTION VOLUME AND LOWER COSTS ARE WHY NORWAYS GDP IS HIGHER THAN SCOTLANDS.............NOTHING TO DO WITH UK GOV .
3/5 In the Case of IRELAND "Ireland, the measurement of GDP is significantly distorted by the composition of the Irish economy, whose measurement is particularly volatile due to the corporate tax policy of the country, and how GDP is measured" ..............................…
4/5 .......Read the text for IRELAND on this link & read text for "Comment number 6" (posts are numbered top RHS) https://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/showthread.php?p=69314960#post69314960 SUMMARY : IRELAND'S GDP IS ABNORMALLY HIGH DUE TO MULTINATIONAL COMPANIES DOMICILING THEIR COMPANY ASSETS IN IRELAND. NOTHING TO WITH UK.
5/5 5/5 It should be clear to almost anyone by now that the writer of this post has chosen three different countries two of which have SPECIFIC reasons which make their GDP abnormally HIGH in order to "Talk Down Scotlands GDP" to FALSELY blame UK Gov for the issue. "Taken for Mugs"
