You can vote in elections as a non-resident and it isn't a scam.

'Fraid not. Not as an overseas resident Jock anyway.

Surely pages 24 and 25:

The following groups of people will therefore be entitled to vote in the referendum: •British citizens resident in Scotland;
•Commonwealth citizens resident in Scotland;
•Republic of Ireland citizens resident in Scotland;
•citizens of other EU countries resident in Scotland; •members of the House of Lords resident in Scotland; and
•Service/Crown personnel serving in the UK or overseas in the armed forces or with Her Majesty’s Government who are registered to vote in Scotland.

Surely pages 24 and 25:

I think you'll find the clue is in the "resident in Scotland" bit. If Mad Jock McScooty is indeed resident in Munich, as he claims, then he is by definition, ineligible to vote. Hence my question as to whether he has some sort of voting scam going, i.e. he's registered as a postal voter at his mum's or another friend or relative who doesn't mind a bit of electoral fraud here and there.

I seem to remember ( probably from this thread ) that he is still registered at his rented property in Edinburgh.
