Scotland - Independence Referundum

[toff]

Disappointing that Murray pouts late opinion based on his perception of negative 'no' campaign. Bigger picture is not PR savviness surely, moreover the rights and wrongs of independence should/will dictate. hypocritical caveat: hope democracy wins, gut... scotland will regret a yes.

I'm trying to stay up cos its historic an shit. I'm very tired though. And Andy marr just said tsunami....it's a sign that I should go to bed.

[El Pibe]

Also nice to see shit is allowed again.

[toff]

nice he's calling Marr, Andy,,, small things...

[El Pibe]

Huw? I thought it was sweet.

[toff]

That's entirely wishful thinking. Let's see whether or not in six months' time (regardless of the referendum vote) politics with a capital 'P' is firing up Scottish people...

2/32 declared. Just when the Scots are finally getting the hang of cricket...

The Noes have it so far.

[Louisa]

As expected, the silent nay sayers had it in the bag all the long. 58/42 to no so far.

Inverclyde result is so close. This is getting exciting.

[TE44]

It was very close but thought it would have been yes vote for inverclyde, yes fae dundee.

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

That's Dundee off my Xmas Card list.

[TE44]

west dumbartinshire yes, its def getting exciting now.

[Loz]

That was getting a bit squeaky bum time for a while. Seems to be swinging back to 'no'.

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

Auld Ayr wham ne'er a town surpasses for honest men and bonny lasses!

[Nigello]

Roll on more politicians: Yorkshire assembly, Manchester parliament, English Assembly - yuck. Thanks, Scotland.

As an ex-pat Scot married to an English wife now living in New York I came home last night from Madison Square Garden having just watched an 'Eagles' concert,(which was interesting and entertaining) and I was further treated to the BBC coverage of the election details.

I think the whole referendum has shown me how brittle the 'Union' is, but also interesting how the Stock exchange was up 60 points when opened today

Their all making money again- yippee!!!

Well some are!?

Chess and politics?

Sky called it just after Kay Burley got flattened by Sturgeon and her minders.

Sky got no interview from her that I saw.

[JohnL]

Huw Edwards had a good referendum on BBC I thought

[steveo]

Is it a good time to announce a massive new oil field?

[El Pibe]

:)

well i for one am glad (yeah , i gave up with the coverage, happy i did as youngest started kicking me in the head and demanding peppa pig at about 5am)

But the union is irrevocably change whatever the result, Cameron admitted as much. are we going to move to a federal model?

For all Salmond's awfulness thought he was gracious and reconciliatory in defeat, reminded me of McCain's losers speech.

[toff]

Regardless of outcome, great advert for democracy. The world was watching.

[El Pibe]

Though did like my mate's comment this morning:

""Alex Salmond called for unity"

Er.........why start now ?

divisive little shit.

At least we won't have to put up with so much of his fat smug toad like visage sweating itself out of the television in future.

Can we arrest him for being a traitor?"

[StraferJack]

thats a bit like ANY party after any election - of course you fight on different agendas, which is inherently "divisive"

[El Pibe]

why let reason get in the way of some good bile.
