I'm actually quite surprised at the islands voting, I thought they'd be staunchly yes.

Glasgows turnout seems to be about 2/3 thats a lot of dont knows or dont cares. Dumfries and Galloway turnout is 106.780 out of about 120,000.

Ain't that the truth. 

Cameron whittering on about it being settled for a generation.  WTH!  Is he opening the door for another one in 20-25 yrs time?

[margaret*e]

Make that years.

Welcome back, Al!

A brilliant turnout, am so pleased they are still part of the union.

Now the hard work begins...

Hopefully the SNP realise they need to make the accounting more efficient, among other things.

Westminster need to make well considered long term plans for concessions/changes etc because that has long term implications for the rest of the union.

Hard slog yesterday

On a personal note, I believe the right decision has won the Day; but, more to the point, a lesson to the rest of the World, in how a civilised and advanced democracy works and is seen to be working................without the losing side chopping the arms and legs of the winners, or blowing them up. Will the lesson be learned, by those that need to learn it the most, in this World...............MMMmm......don't hold your breath.

A closer look at not-so-smug Alex today. Is he on the way to The Tower?:-

It's the look of a Man who persuaded many to think with their Hearts and not their Heads and when you do THAT in Life, you very rarely get things right.
