UK bank Notes

Last week the Bank of England announced that £20 notes featuring Sir Edward Elgar will not be legal tender after June 30. From July 1, only notes with the image of Adam Smith, the Scottish economist, which came into circulation in March 2007, will be legal.

Why are we having a Scottish economist on our bank notes?
1. Scotland has one of the worst economies in Europe
2. Scottish notes are NOT legal tender in Scotland only coinage.

Why are we in the UK being pushed to accept this from the heathens up North?
