Reader's Blog: Please vote yes for the exiles who cannot

Scotland has been my home for 15 years, close enough to stay in touch, but still many miles away when nephews are born, or cousins pass away. I love Scotland, but I’m Irish and I’ve longed to be back for more than half the time I’ve been away.

My wife and I have one child, and we’re hoping to have another soon, to add to the excitement, there’s a strong possibility the next one will be Irish. Unfortunately the joy of finally being home is dulled, tarnished with the fear of my wife being pregnant in Ireland.
