A Scots person’s vote was equal to an English person’s vote. A British citizen is a British citizen, there is no such thing as an ‘English citizen’ or a ‘Scottish citizen’. We are all British, and our votes were equal. when it comes to parliamentary elections however, Scottish constituency sizes are smaller each person’s vote in Scotland accounts for slightly more because their votes are not diluted as much as they are in England. Saying Scotland’s ‘voice’ was ignored is kind of like saying London’s voice was ignored, because they predominatnly voted for remain too.

You are correct. My choice of words was wrong. Perhaps the better choice would be that Scotland felt it should have been decided on a “nations” level.
