@etkwebster @BjCruickshank That's in the ROI where they don't give UK citizens that right. But UK does give Irish citizens that right HERE.
Plus you could vote on constitutional matters in Northern Ireland from the minute you moved there. That's democracy. I have the same right in Scotland. 🧐
@BjCruickshank But that's not the case is it as the SNP want to give all immigratants even illegal ones as well as EU citizens the vote 🤔, as they see it as a guarantee yes vote
@BjCruickshank Nope, it's not up to Scottish people as Scotland is full of people who are not Scottish.
English, Welsh & Northern Irish all have the right to vote on the constitutional question.
You only have to be resident in Scotland, but not Scottish. Or are you a bigot? 🤔
@BjCruickshank So who exactly is a Scot then, if it can’t be an English person residing in Scotland?
1. Born in Scotland?
2. Born in Scotland lives in Scotland?
3. Lives in Scotland but not English?
4. Some sort of multigenerational Scottishness?
5. Something else?
Seems relevant
@BjCruickshank But how do you define Scottish here? 🤔 You don't agree with the idea of Civic Nationalism? Do people have to share your politics for you to call them Scottish? And what's your view on the nationality of people born in Scotland who don't share your viewpoint?
@paddyb53 The clearances were started by the clan chiefs. There were more Scots on the Hanoverian side than the Jacobite. It was prod v tim successions. Nothing to do with Scotland v UK
