(and I am not sure how he would stop English people living in Scotland voting in the referendum
Everybody who is on the electoral roll in Scotland will be eligible to vote in the referendum, their country of birth will be irrelevant. It can't be any other way as there, at present. is no such thing as a Scottish citizen - we are all UK citizens.

When the SNP loose the referendum Salmond will blame the English born voters and in the tradition of the EU, when a vote doesn't go their way, will call for another referendum for only those who can prove they are 100% Scot - probably a very small number indeed
