Mikewsmith I.e intimidation.

aye from westminster, the banks, big business.

You are Tommy Sheridan and I claim my 5 MCeuropounds
Former Socialist MSP Tommy Sheridan, who has been campaigning for a "Yes" vote, told BBC Scotland: "It is not looking good to be honest. I am feeling almost broken-hearted.
"I feel that the British establishment has mobilised the big guns, they have mobilised the bankers, they have mobilised the billionaires, they have mobilised the supermarkets, they have all been corralled into Number 10 and told to get out there and frighten people and I think that people have been frightened."

are you trying to intimidate me there 😉
It's been widely reported from various news outlets but as you say didn't happen. There must be another reason why people were saying Yes when meaning No.

Very surprised that 1 in 4 Glaswegians didn't vote after seeing the scenes on the streets these last few weeks, especially with the turnout in other areas.
What happened?

[Having said that, 75% would be high at any other time].

Shafted? 170, 000 Glaswegians said no. Are they idiots then or putting aside emotional unstable thoughts and looking at the facts/pros and cons?

Disagree. Independence wasn't the only answer to the question 🙂

some places in glasgow can get 30% turnourt, so in relation to that it's fair enough, the rise in turnout is apparent on a par with everywhere else.

They are called the silent majority for a reason, they are happy to be ruled. Nothing will change.

We can but hope Westminster suffers a smugness overload. The buggers are going to be even more insufferable for the next few days.

Oh the champers will be gushing like a highland torrent today, "Great work chaps! The McOiks swallowed it again! And we made a mint from that little market wobble we set up...As soon as the fuss has died down we'll really show them who's in charge... HOORAY!"

My wife was in Glasgow this week and said the intimidation and abuse from Yes campaigers, directed at those who said they were voting No, or didn't want to say, was scary. And she's from Paisley...

I'm still watching. Looks like I've earned my hangover. 🙂

Can't argue with the results, massive turnout.

It's a victory for democracy even if I don't like the result.

Gordon Brown has swung it IMO.

Only 1/2 million more needed for a No. Back to Salmon claiming it on away goals and devo max, trouble is he needs the rest of the Uk to vote for it.

I hope and think you are wrong. 'Westminster' can't ignore >1m Yessers, and hopefully all UK will benefit.

Shame salmond doesnt just admit defeat and retire

Good to see common sense is prevailing, missing vital serious answers.....had they answered them even i might have voted yes.

Interesting that bbc world are very yes orientated , yet apparently bbc in the uk are no orientated.

Good to see yes party already throwing out the conspirousy theorys on bbc world.

I think the fat lady is dropping her mars bars in the fryer and doing her final warm ups. It would take a massive swing to get this back.
I assume though the discussion will run on for another 5 years.

Ultimately could do the same thing those who want out are the noisy crowd not the majority. If you look at the options seriously and not in a daily wail way Europe is a much better option. Anyway it's over I'm glad the union has remained having grown up close to in Northumberland I'd be sad to see it become the frontier again.
