David Cameron: 'No vote' Scotland could still win income tax control
SCOTLAND could still win control of its own income tax even if voters say no to independence, David Cameron has said.
The Tory PM sought to up the ante on Labour’s devolution promises yesterday with talk of a Westminster “consensus” as his allies in Scotland recommended a range of concessions should the country stay with Britain.
The proposals, from the Conservative Strathclyde Commission on the Future Governance of Scotland, suggest giving Holyrood full control over income tax, in contract to Labour’s proposal to devolve three-quarters of the basic rate.
