Rejected petition Bring forward the Scottish independence vote to May 2013

More details

Scotland is seeking independence from the rest of the UK and is wanting to have the Vote in 2014.
My issue is why should one country who wants to leave the union drag the rest of the UK along to when they want a vote.In a matter such as Independence it is in everybody's interest to have the vote as soon as possible.

In not doing so your putting out businesses and people who don't want to live in a divided country for the next two years.I want the issue about independence vote brought froward as soon as possible and not left down to Scotland to decide on its own.
