If there were to be a referendum in Scotland on independence, then who would have the vote in this referendum on the continued existence of my country? Everyone registered to vote in a Scottish constituency for elections to the House of Commons, including Irish Citizens? Or everyone registered to vote in elections to a Scottish local authority, including citizens of any country on earth? Yet most British Citizens would have no say whatever over the future of our country!
But again I say that even if a referendum were attempted by the Scottish Parliament, then it would be ruled ultra vires in the courts, if not at the behest of the Unionist parties, then at that of some Unionist millionaire or other. Counsel have probably already been retained. Indeed, I sincerely hope that they have been.
