If it is a 100% inclusive campaign why are Scots who live and work in other parts of the UK being excluded from the vote, just a question thats all

Because it is The Scottish people that will decide.  That is the people who live, work and contribute to Scotland.

And 16 yr old kids that have never contributed to anything and expect their free university places (paid for by England) will continue whichever way they vote.


I reckon if the Scots vote no the English should get their own referendum to decide if we still want to subsidize them.

Ah!! the quote by Stupid Luke is one of the reasons the Scots are looking at going it alone. Just to enlighten you all parts of the Union which makes up the United Kingdom of Great Britain & Northern Ireland. IS ENGLAND , SCOTLAND , WALES & NORTHERN IRELAND, The Union flag is made up from the Cross of St George, St Andrewand St Patrick, poor old Wales for one reason or another is not represented in the Union flag, No offence to the Welsh here but I think Wales is only deemed as being a Principality.

I do not mean to offend the English here but it is this type of mind set that gets up the rest of the citizens of the UK noses, as in England is subsidizing the rest of us, It is basically the financial sector around London that is subsidizing the rest of us, that includes the rest of England as well North of the Watford Gap, not everyone in that sector is English,
I am from N Ireland but lived most of my life in England, I will say this I find the English a warm and tolerant people, at least I was allowed to live my life there with my family in peace when at a time that was not possible from where I came from in N Ireland. A lot of English , Scots, Welsh & N Irish lads gave there lives over there in the fight to keep us British which is what the majority of that part of the UK want to stay. It will be a very sad day if the Scots decide to go their own way, We are stronger togather.
