Scotland and Ireland Revenue Union Debate Reveals Burden Shifts
A lengthy pamphlet compares Scotland and Ireland as separate divisions of the empire arguing that revenue per capita dictates political representation. It estimates Ireland’s population against Scotland’s to show Scotland paying more than its share and outlines potential rebalancing of peers and commons. It also discusses the Union with England and projected effects on tax and governance, with marginal notes on natural history, wills, and local incidents.
