It’s a referendum

Why are Liberal, Labour, Green, Scottish Socialist, some Tory, first time and young voters joining SNP voters to vote Yes on 18 September 18?

Is it because, as Kennedy Stewart wrote (Referendum not an election; SN 29/08/14), 18 September is a referendum on independence, not an election?

 When Gordon Harmer (It’s about the SNP; SN 31/08/14) goes down to his polling station, he will struggle to find any political parties on offer.

Gordon, it is a referendum!

By the by, I am not a member of any of the above, but I will be voting Yes.
