...and not such that I think I should have a vote as a Scot.
As to having a say as a citizen of the UK, I am undecided, It rather depends on what the thing is likely to cost me. Its interesting how so many people care about Scottish independence may cost them, yet so few people ever speak about the absurd ways our monies are wasted by continual governments in so many other ways. Yes. The government we have a choice about voting for. See the difference yet?

See the difference there? You're ahead of yourself yet again. Scotland is still part of the UK. This decision affects UK citizens and will cost all of them money. Everyone in the UK should vote. If not, I'm sure you'll be in favour of a referendum in England, Wales and NI on whether to leave the UK.

If the Scots want independence why did the SNP take such a kicking in the election?

The SNP have more councillors than any other party, gained more councillors and took overall control of 2 councils including Dundee, the first time the SNP has had overall control of a City Council, all this as the incumbent party in Holyrood. CMD and Clegg can only dream of such results as the leaders of governing parties. I would have said this was a very good result for the SNP. The only two people to come out well of the weeks elections are Alex and Boris.

So a Labour landslide is an SNP victory? Good luck in that poll if you're allowed it.

BliarOut said: And yet they still slaughtered the SNP  Do you even read the news?! A Labour landslide in Scotland?! Really?! Care to provide any evidence of that? The only parties that took a kicking are the coalition! Anyway, still nearly 50k posts and counting without one that actually adds to a thread in any way. But at least you're TRYING and I applaud you for that. Keep at it...

The SNP increased by 17%. I think that clearly shows who got a kicking!
