      Well I wouldn't get a vote because I no longer live there. However, if I did get a vote I'd opt to stay in the Union. Wouldn't want to risk losing all the lovely subsidies after all.

        Same on getting a vote, but if I did I'd vote for independence if I had one. Or some sort of federal situation, not sure that full independence is practical with things like armed forces etc but I'm sure much smarter people than me could work that out.

          I think the vote is for english folks voting to get rid of scotland !?

          I'm not sure what new liebour were really upto with the devolution stuff. The welsh didn't want their own 'assembly' but they fiddled things until they got one.

            Why is there no vote for English Independence option?
            How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think

              I'd prefer to vote for fair distribution of government funds and keep Scotland in the UK, but failing that I'll see independence.

                Because, as the superior race we already have our independence. We are rightly subjugating(and unfortunately subsidising) the heathen scum north of the wall.

                Note, not all people who are of Scots origin are heathen scum. Fleming was quite a nice chap.

                  You forfeited your right to a vote by reinstating the NL Government after it's first 5-year term. You are now simply the "worker ants" of the colony that is the UK.

                    Surely it's Scottish oil that's been subsidising England since the 1970s?
