Dundee mate,ive just heard it a few times over the years whether it be on TV or reading it that the north of England or maybe it just anywhere outside London seem to feel cast aside

Im with Kevin Bridges "eff it,ll be a laugh"

Of those who voted 80% were for staying as part of Britain and 20% were for independence.
I've heard that the SNP have now abandoned all plans to extend the vote to pre-school children !!![/quote]

Serioulsy? your obv having a dig because they extended the vote to 16-18 y/o . I think its a great idea as its them who will be affected most by this and if your old enough to pay tax/join the army and have a child then im sure you should be able to have a vote on something that affects your future.

Well true i would like to think they would keep letting the Scottish fighters fight for the Belt ,as the Eng/Sco fights always have that extra dimension to it because of the rivalry .

I mentioned the Isle of Man , now Jay Morris is from there and im sure he boxes under a British Liceance. Now the IOM is not part of the United Kingdom or Northern Ireland so they must be a set of rules in place for him and other IOM (apolagies i cant name others) to fight for Lonsdales and the like .

Jay Morris is from the Isle of Wight, which is part of England, I don't know the situation with the Isle of Man, it's sort of independent and sort of not.

Im sure its not just boxing that will be effected in this way either .

I have yet to meet ANYONE who is going to vote for it. I am a proud Brit and Scot. And in my opinion Britain consists of England, Scotland , Wales and Northern Ireland and anyone who tries to say differently is splitting hairs.
