Anyone with curiosity about this needs to search my available posts for "Debt", "Revenue" & "English Debt" to call forth some interesting articles too 😉

See how Scotland has bn under-funded & over-taxed for centuries since the #TreatyOfUnion

This article in particular - Financial Cost to Scotland of the Union - Harry Gow's contribution to 'Scots Magazine', Sunday 1st March, 1891.

I took screenshots in case anyone wanted to know more about the #EnglishDebt Scotland took on as part of signing the #TreatyOfUnion

@bevy_de Cosmo Innes (1861), 'Sketches of Early Scotch History', is pretty in depth with the ecclesiastical institutions, universities & a couple of big families.

@bevy_de James Grant (1880), 'Old and New Edinburgh', makes for an excellent read and where my pinned #TreatyOfUnion tweet is from. Only volume 1 of 3 uploaded so far.

@bevy_de Donald McLeod (1892), 'Gloomy Memories', is a complete run down, from witness testimony, of the #Clearances from a Sutherland native. Being a later edition it includes newspaper articles from Canada showing their disgust with the British authorities.

Let's get this published!

Alex's cover pic for the publication of Britannia holding (what will be) the tatty, old, no longer fit-for-purpose #TreatyOfUnion

Does it get folk's seal of approval?

Wee cover update à l'Alex. Background/frame is a scan of the cover to 'Gazetteer of Scotland' (1847). Coloured in photoshop. He's done a sterling job of it so far 😁

Good morning all & OTD in 1320, the Declaration of Arbroath was made by the Scots Nobility & Clergy to the Pope: "It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom – for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself."
The whole Declaration of Arbroath (1320) is worth reading as a statement of the rights conferred by God & natural law upon all people #Scotland #Arbroath

"But from these countless evils we have been set free, by the help of Him Who though He afflicts yet heals and restores, by our most tireless Prince, King and Lord, the Lord Robert." #Scotland #Arbroath

A #data informed look at how the #human experience of #lawyering has changed over time.

Just as #clients need better #value propositions, #law firms need better business models. Meaningful #legal #transformation will occur where the two intersect.

legalevolution.org/2019/02/pay-ho…
H/T to @augierakow @robsaccone for the post #inspirelegal 🤓 email chain that #inspired this tweetable.

(Bc I’m a tweetable factory. 🤷🏻‍♀️)
Another reaction to this @wihender post: we NEED to deal with #automation anxiety in #legal.

Legacy models of law practice aren’t built for the pace of #business and volume of #information of the #digital age.

More #hours from more #lawyers can’t be the default answer.

@phenrikand 1/ I’ve been in the digital cash and eMoney space since 1999 for co-design bit.ly/NavyCash It was centralised command control money digital USD on an EMV card where the backend -> every transaction traced & tracked by float manager @jpmorgan debitcard ATMs via @Mastercard
@phenrikand @jpmorgan @Mastercard 2/ Every Navy base & every ship in a flotilla was like an island🌴 at sea (at any point in time it could have only local and no or limited comms back to treasury) Similar to today’s offchain and onchain networks eventually reconciliation would happen. DoubleSpends manual captured
@phenrikand @jpmorgan @Mastercard 3/ Proof of Work Blockchains tend to centralisation. The top5 PoW 💥 Blockchains generally work 💪and have a huge bounty on their embedded value across their networks PoS and others not so much
