OK - but considering England's population's over 56 million & Scotland's is around 5.5 million, this would mean the English electorate was deciding for us.

Some might say we should be used to that by now...

I don't see why the Scots should be the only party that has a say in it - regardless of the relative size of the parties.

Btw if Scotland had voted for independence a decade back, I would have respected the decision. (Contrast that with the attitude of some remainers after the Brexit referendum).

So you are saying that, following an independence referendum that can only happen if a government elected by the people of England deigns to permit it, the result of that referendum should also be decided by the people of England?

Much like fucking Brexit was, since you mention it.

Most remain voters accepted the result as far as I can tell,even though it was only an advisory vote, and really it is generally best to ignore idiotic advice.
