Fragile Bird Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Dundee - 57% Yes, 42% No. 118,000 votes there. Game changer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eira Seren Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 He won control of Scotland for a while. Oh, she meant before Culloden. I guess that's how he got that far. Though not perhaps the endorsement she was going for. Dundee- Yes West Dumbartonshire - Yes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Anti-Targ Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Is it too early to say it's all over and No has won? Has any news outlet called it yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eira Seren Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Ja, makes sense to me.Has anyone here ever been to Edinburgh? I've always wanted to go, seems like a pretty place It's pretty in the "I like old stuff" kind of way, nice to walk in. Lots of interesting museums, galleries and architecture, if you go for that sort of thing. There's a distinct new and old part of the city. Glasgow has some nifty modern art and also the Mackintosh school of art. If your taste is less nerdy, perhaps Glascow, it's got a younger feel to it.

brAnthelAstgreenseer Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Glasgow needed higher percentage of Yes voters than that to pull them through . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fragile Bird Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Here in Canada they are predicting that it's now highly unlikely the Yes side will win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eira Seren Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 It is, but even so. The fact that there's a vote at all is remarkable. Many of the places going for yes have a lot of people who have been left out of the system, and who don't have much. It's optimistic to think that maybe the promises made by the No campaign will be upheld, but maybe more people will decide to get involved and start asking them to deliver on those promises.

A Man Reads Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 It's over. The BBC will finish the course and wait for the counts to make it official. But there's no path for yes to win.It's over. However . . . the largest city in Scotland has voted for independence. The fourth largest city as well. And maybe 45% of Scotland. That cannot be ignored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renasko Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 There goes Scotland. It was nice knowin' ye. It will be weird watching sports in the future. Or talking to any non-domestic based 'Scot' in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angalin Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Just pissed off that Dundee's turnout is less than everyone else's. Disappointing According to the Guardian, there's six councils left to report in and the only two with voter turnouts below 80% were Glasgow and Dundee. Is that an urban thing? What's up with that? The CBC just interviewed one of the many Quebec separatists in Scotland as an observer, and he said he was amazed how quiet the streets are, unlike the passion exhibited on the streets of Quebec during our referendum. He says there are more Quebec and Spanish flags being flown than Scottish flags. I'm a bit puzzled why the rest of the UK doesn't have a vote as well. After all, everyone sits in parliament, don't they? We didn't get one in 1980 or in 1995, FB. This kind of referendum is more peaceful than, eg, East Ukraine, but fewer people get a say. If it means no guns, that's ok with me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
