I can neither confirm nor deny.
the financial sector seems to be thinking the result is "no"
but, either way about 50% are going to be disappointed, I wonder if splitting the Scots like this was a good idea
It's not like we were an happy and harmonious nation united as one in our love for Westminster rule until that nasty Mr Salmond sprung a referendum on us. The division has been there for a while, it's not just there in Scotland, and it's not going to go away by ignoring it. What I found gratifying about the Yes campaign was that it wasn't a single monolithic entity. All kinds of people have been campaigning and coming up with interesting ideas and hopes and dreams, and no later how unrealistic some of those have been, the end result has been to severely put the shiters up Westminster and force them to acknowledge that people aren't happy, and that that still might matter, despite the wholesale selling out to corporate interests.
Sounds riveting, really. I was going through some of the manifold ramifications today and I am left with the impression that although a romantic and emotional thing, there aren't enough contingencies in place to make it a success, ultimately.
I'd change me Teh vote in a minute if I could.
Do you think it could ever end up as Ireland did?
So really then, if the vote is no - but the vote is real close as I thought it might be - do you think then it will give Scotland a more powerful voice in Parliament then? Would that be enough to appease the separatists?
I don't use pay TV, but thanks for BBC 5. Bookmarked and listening now.
It is 01:09 there and I am hearing the returns come in, but I'll not let anything go yet... I should have been writing down the returns as they are coming in, but you'll see as much tomorrow.
They've stopped it. Oh, I've checked your link and I think I can watch it from there. Thanks!
Unbelieveable turnouts, averages somewhere around 86%! That is unreal!
