I believe Scotland Yard had the votes tallied months ago. Proof is in the pudding; lack of exit polls.
Good lord Scotland Yard is impressive. Managed to fool 5 million voters to thinking their vote counted. I'm amazed with that much time and focus on faking the Independence vote crime in London didn't quadruple over the past few months.
But look on the bright side, Salmond got everything he set out for, devomax was always his preferred option
Cameron was never going to keep that promise

Sources say new powers for Scottish parliament will be "an extenssnion of existing responsibilities" - not Devo Max #indyref
So it wouldn't be a promise then. It would be another big fat lie told by the usual suspects so that they get what they want.
Cameron is a proven liar, I don't think anyone believes him on anything at this point or at least they shouldn't, if that is true about not giving devomax its just another to add to the list
getting back to the night in quebec, they counted 5 million votes in about 3 hours. Those 3 hours were just tense drama, the news channels could not keep up.
Here's a clip of the declaration, watch the numbers continuously jump, imagine watching that live.
It was a pretty scary night.

So 16 year olds that can get married and have kids legally do not have a say in the country that they will live in for maybe the next 60 years and their children maybe for the next 80-90 years???
Nah mate. I'm just prepared to trust our young people in deciding on their own futures. I also just hope for the best for Scotland. The people have voted and we all have to respect and live with the results. However, history does not bode well for any positive change so we will all have to live with the consequences - be they good or bad.
Good luck mate. I don't agree with your views but that's life.

With the snp making the rules , lowering the age not letting epats vote , soldiers living in in England you still lost .. Roasted to be honest
End of the day Scotland voted correct. This is only the beginning we must ensure our country never has to be in this position again. Scotland has spoken we are British and proud. Next step get the snp out, change our anthem and stop a divided country

I am curious to see the voter turnout for youth voters. I am also curious to see if engaging young people at an earlier age by allowing them to vote will cause them to stay politically engaged for future generations.
I think the exposure young people got and discussions in school about their vote actually meaning something was a pretty fantastic gift for that generation, regardless of how they voted.
Great experiment for Canada to watch.

Kind of embarrassing that scottish citizens are cheering for a vote which says that they don't have enough confidence in themselves and have to rely on their big brothers from england. Sad show of fear over self belief.
Maybe they just see themselves as UK citizens more than purely Scottish, there's nothing wrong with that. It's a big reason why the push for independence has died down in Quebec, most young people there identify themselves as Canadian over Quebecois. I imagine the two nations hosting Olympics so recently has helped both cases
