I am a Scotsman,my birth certificate states when and where I was born,my work record by NIC's gives where I worked but I have no vote on what becomes of my Nationality.

A Chinaman working in a restaurant in Glasgow can decide this for me,even if he is only here for a few years before he goes back to China.

Do I detect a flaw in the voting system?

Yes it is a personal thing to me but I also consider my nationality to be quite an important issue which should be my decision given a choice

Anybody who has travelled the world and had dealings with embassies will appreciate that what it says on your passport can have a bearing, hence my concern, a whole new diplomatic issue if Scotland becomes independent.
