Exit polls are showing a NO victory. What promises has London made to Scotland if they vote to stay in the UK?

I would have been shocked if it was "YES"

BTW, Your flag is awesome, I'm from that "country" as well.

Don't know about those exit polls just yet. BBC coverage online is quite good. Had a great interview with 3 different pollsters. The one guy said that if Yes is to win, it has to win Glasgow by a pretty good margin - 55% or more. If it's under that, then No will win.

a BBC Scotland tweet says early reports say 54% in Glasgow and yes supporters looking a little down because of that.

I haven't watched all the BBC coverage (had to leave the office and go home) but the audience that they have in studio seems to be oddly on the side of the Yes camp. Obviously it is a small segment of the population and not representative.

Clackmannanshire has voted 46% yes, 54% no but this is apparently the smallest council.

75% turnout in Glasgow is considered very very high.

But compared to other parts of the country it is very low. Apparently Glasgow is historically low.
