2 million votes for no. Can't argue with that.
Just like the end of Braveheart.
[QUOTE=Gwoodman;46020452]Isn't this how life is in general? You literally cannot please everyone, so usually it's the majority that gets the rights.[/QUOTE] Oh don't get me wrong, I think democracy sucks, but the alternatives suck way more.

Ok guys you've embaressed 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.
A 400,000 vote gap is a pretty large amount...

[QUOTE=Faunze;46020186]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.[/QUOTE] You have no idea of the circumstances at play there. These people are volunteers who give up their entire night to sort through, depending on the council, tens or hundreds of thousands of individual votes. Who are you to say that it was malicious? Is it not possible that, having been working all through the night and picking up [i]yet another[/i] batch of hundreds of ballots that she merely sorted them into the wrong pile, recognized her mistake and corrected it? Whether you like it or not you live in a democratic, non-corrupt nation that just held a vote that didn't go your way. Be happy you've been part of such a democratic process that many all over the world wish they could have for their own country rather than crying foul because you didn't win. Edit: Just seen your latest post since making my own, apologies.

Only 4 councils out of 32 voted yes.
Great now we're going to be stuck with a UKIP coalition. Fuck sakes. Please don't vote ukip

[QUOTE=cucumber;46020407]I can't tell any alternatives, but i can tell you that it was a shitty method of choosing if Scotland should be independent or not. There are still 1,539,920 people who wants Scotland to be independent. I dont think it is gonna sit well with them.[/QUOTE] Edgy students Drunks Dole dossers/Jobless Idiots Anyone who works at a company would have voted no, lest they want to fuck their lives up. EDIT: Oh, and people who want to spite England. (??) You can rate dumb if you want, but I am correct. Glad to see there weren't as many idiots in Scotland as people with sense.
I wonder what the no voters will think after a round of half arsed compromises and the british government going back on their promises. Unless there is a major rejig of the entire political system I suspect the independence issue will pop up in another few years after another term of awful politics.

On facepunch at least.
