On September 18th Scotland will vote on whether to stay in the United Kingdom, or leave to form a separate country.

For everyone in the rest of the UK, just as for Scotland, the result of the referendum will have a fundamental impact on our identity, our culture and our future.

As the Yes/No campaigns battle it out on Scottish turf, the feelings of people in England, Wales and Northern Ireland have largely gone unexpressed and unheard.We believe that most people in England, Northern Ireland and Wales don't want Scotland to leave the UK, yet respect the right of the Scots to decide this for themselves.

We also feel that the time has come for the whole of the UK to wake up to the break-up of Britain, and to show Scotland that we do care.
