"You got a vote because you did; you didn't have to do anything but exist."
You would have indeed got one in those terms if you had merely chosen to move here. But the facts are that lots of people put out endless hours of unpaid work, knocked countless doors, campaigned and leafleted by the thousand at every election for generations just to get that vote.
We don't have negative terms like "Jock" or "Sweaty" for English folk in Scotland, so I'll borrow an appropriate one from the antipodian colonials: you're the ultimate "Whinging Pom".
