I vote SNP now that I am born again Scottish, not because I want independence but because they were/are the only party that can beat the Tories in this cream tea and twinset heartland - and did/do beat them. They seem more interested in the price of alcohol than anything to do with an independent Scotland and I would fear for a Scotland run entirely by the SNP.

Co-incidently I was going to start a thread about the referendum and pose the question as to who will/should be eligible to vote in same.

Wife beating Spaniards who haven't lived here for yonks ?

English people who have moved here and run successful business ?

Etc.

What I do not understand is why the English are not given a vote. English and Scottish should have a referendum on the same day and if either country votes for independence then that vote should be binding.
