Rejected petition UK referendum on Scottish independence

More details

With the SNP pushing for a referendum on Scottish independence from the UK it is only right and fitting that the whole of the UK population are able to express their opinion rather than restrict to solely Scottish participation.

Thus, there should be a UK wide referendum as to whether Scotland should gain independence from the UK or remain.
