The referendum to be held in Scotland on 18 September 2014 will decide if Scotland should become an independent country separate from the United Kingdom (yes vote) or remain part of the UK (no vote).

The result is that Scotland has decided to stay a UK country. Which economically was the best decision they could have made at the time.

Scottish people living in England were not granted the right to vote in the Scottish independence referendum of 2014 because the voting rules were determined by the Scottish Parliament, which restricted eligibility to those residing in Scotland.
