Kinda. To be more exact London and the South subsidise the rest of the UK, Scotland is the 3rd highest value per head region, ahead of all of England apart from the above, however it has higher public spending.
The most subsidised area is Wales, followed by the North East then the North West. The South East and London subsidise the most, the South West is the only other region, full stop, that pays its own bills.
