Nationality issue
Being the holder of a United Kingdom passport, living, presently, very happily in North Berwick, even though I am not of Scottish descent, I am deeply concerned that, according to Page 273 of the white paper, if there is a Yes vote everyone who is resident in Scotland on 19 September automatically becomes Scottish.
Would I be able to appeal against this? Would it be my human right to do so?
I posed this question at a recent public hustings meeting where John Mason MSP had to look up Page 273 as I don’t think he had been taken down this line previously.
