Embarassing edit.
Ok guys you've embarassed me. I appologise.
I guess we'll just see what happens.
I feel I should clarify. I was completely fine when I got home from work and seen the result. I was sitting waiting for camerons speach and joked with my friend about the situation when I stumbled on a (granted, dodgy and raw) bit of footage of a possible event of absolute misconduct which is a total criminal offence, not only that, but her supervisor was bending over the table at someone else and not watching her, the camera was though.
If there's foul play, it should be investigated. If it was your country, I think you might agree.
I never had any doubt.

I don't think I've ever seen a less convincing pair of videos.
Poorly presented, perhaps, the first video is fucking outragous. Second is questionable.
[QUOTE=Faunze;46020158]Gonna leave these here.[/QUOTE]
These videos come out with every single vote, and they get less convincing every time.
I wish people would stop grasping at straws, it was a close race.
If there's even a chance it was swayed, it needs a recount, a recount with MACHINES prefferably
I'm sorry but did you not see that woman pick up a handfull of yes votes and put it into the no pile? Did you not just see that? It happened. She needs to be arrested.
i wanted independence
[I]Thanks a lot, BBC.[/I]
The pound has surged in a two year high, over the Euro.
Huzzah!
Not going to lie, I'm disappointed. But it is what it is and I'm glad that we've been so peaceful about the whole thing and so gracious in defeat.
Here's hoping though that it's ruffled a few feathers and we get the benefits of all those hasty promises of MaxDevo.

Do you honestly think that there was so much sway that if you recounted it would equal over 400K votes?

There's no chance it was swayed by vote rigging. I feel a little dirty saying this now because I don't think I've posted with regard to this vote earlier here but I didn't see much chance of the yes votes having it.
Shit has to really hit the fan before a democratic nation will vote for independence against keeping the status quo.
Excellent. Not surprising, of course. Most people with a brain knew it was a bad move. But still, glad to see it. And best of all, Piers Morgan will have to fuck off.

Dont they do that once they are done counting the votes for privacy reasons? There's no way to tell if this was before or after the vote.

Oh I'm sorry is it too much effort?

Not in the slightest. How would a recount be possible?
[QUOTE=Faunze;46020269]Oh I'm sorry is it too much effort?[/QUOTE]
Have some dignity, be brave and understand that the majority of Scotland voted democratically no.

So how do we know those are yes votes. Shit for all we could know this could be some office camera of a woman shredding some papers.
I doubt those ladies would manage to do anything to around 500,000 votes in time to change anything.

That's a shredder? It looks like a 1 way bin.

What about a few hundred?

But he's so unsatisfied with the outcome he's going to spew conspiracies all over the place. I bet soon the illuminati will be involved.

I think someone's angry that Scotland is not independent and is tying to find any excuse to say that a majority of people are wrong.

That's not a paper shredder dude. You're really grasping at straws here.

Im extremely please by the vote! But already Yes people I know are kicking off about the generic things like "torys, westminster, nuclear weapons, vote rigging etc etc etc" Scotland is going to be a mess for some time to come because of this
