Well Inverclyde that's a close one
Inverclyde votes no.
Really though, it's a bit bad that Salmond [url=http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/newsbysector/energy/oilandgas/11101448/Salmonds-oil-boom-claims-blown-apart-by-Scottish-energy-consultant.html]overestimated the amount of North Sea oil[/url] and based his projections off it. It's not the main attraction of independence, of course not. But he shouldn't have used those inflated figures to give a false impression on Scotland's economic power.
Man, talk about rough starts for the Yes vote... Still too early to say though.
Holy fuck talk about every vote counting jesus christ.
Wow. 49.9% Yes and 50.1% No is way too close.
Christ that was close, the cheering was slightly delayed as if people had to take a second to process the numbers.
[QUOTE=Highwind017;46018558]Man, talk about rough starts for the Yes vote... Still too early to say though.[/QUOTE] Actually I'm surprised how high it is. As people keep saying, six months ago this would have been a landslide no vote that would have made the AV Referendum looks like a close call. The fact that, even though they have a big clime, they're holding on with bloody nails.
Couldn't get any closer than that, surely?

[QUOTE=Orkel;46018588]If they hold another vote sometime in the far future it'll certainly be yes, if the support continues to rise through the years.[/QUOTE] Voting in general will be abundant. I never voted in my life until yesterday.

I can count the No's with one hand. Then again, like Orkel said. Support for independence has been on the rise. They could say that after this Referendum we won't see anything like this again but, I seriously doubt you'd see the last of it.
Apparently Alex Salmond has flown off somewhere.

[QUOTE=Jsm;46018622]I would love to know what those tweets were..[/QUOTE] He's probably going to wallace himself into westminster
[QUOTE=carcarcargo;46018312]What else could they want? Scotland joins Russia?[/QUOTE] Yeah but then Russia would want a buffer between Scotland and England, and it won't be Scotland that loses land. Cumbria and Northumberland would suddenly find themselves knee-deep in armed pro-Scottish separatists.
It seems that he isn't going to be around to watch his own regions count...
Suddenly "Another Fire Alarm" Dundee. Can we have some split screen on this?
two declarations at once aaaaa [editline]19th September 2014[/editline] USA USA USA
57% yes in Dundee, interesting.
This is surprisingly exciting.
[b]C-C-C-COMBO BREAKER![/b] Now we're taking, i think we got a fight now.
Who won?
[QUOTE=Xystus234;46018712]Who won?[/QUOTE] Maybe.
