As a European Union citizen, the (Yes) vote would end up having a pretty big impact on me. In fact, I feel I should have been allowed to vote. I would even put on the proper accent and everything.

I've spent 5 minute trying to interpret the word "anti-devolutionist" and I can't think of anything else other than "complete wanker".

While I did not think this was the right time for Scotland to secede, I do hope that this doesn't kill the chances for other independence movements that are more primed in my opinion. For example, I think the Catalonians are in a stronger position and would perhaps do it well, and of course Lega Nord's outline has looked good to me for quite some time.

Orkney really isn't a Yes stronghold to begin with so it's not really a surprise. Lowtechs posted:Wouldn't happen the South part is too reliant on all the tax dollars we from the North provide.

Oh and rumour has it the police were holding off on Establishment paedophile arrests till after the referendum so as to not prejudice the vote. So there could be some big news on that soon.

There's a manner of regression to the mean with this - we're all scrambling to make conclusions on the basis of a few extreme results. I expect the results will tighten over the night.

Those are both good, also hoping for success in Northern Epirus, Istria, and South Tyrol. Really it's a shame Scotland was the first one as it was always doomed to fail and might put a damper on these other movements that in my opinion have a lot to offer.

What happened is not sad. It's not depressing. It's not even heartbreaking. It's absolute wretchedness. A despondent cry of the tortured and tormented masses. England; by far one of the greatest forced of evil in the history of the world. A nation whose entire history involves invasion and genocide of all native peoples; whose entire modus operandi and identity is destruction, massacre, and subjugation of all free nations; done in the name of a handful bloodthirsty and incestous elites who have reigned roughshod over the actual citizens of said country (who in fact make up a very small amount of those they actually rule over) who have been brainwashed, indoctrinated, and tortured by a all-powerful apostate Church to accept the amazing "revelation" of these rulers God given power to act like the demonic beasts described in the very bible they worship. The people of Scotland have been subjugated for hundreds and hundreds of years, their native tribes all but eliminated by the dominant British bastard rulers who used jus primae noctis to systematically rape million of Scotswomen and keep the Scottish Natives as a constant Minority. Sadder still is how brainwashed the native sons of these tribes have become, thinking that their own subjugators can somehow be their equals, friend, or can be forgiven for the terrors that the English carried out among their ancestors for hundreds upon hundreds of years. If African Americans, Latin Americans, Ukrainians, Koreans, and the Chinese can not look past this there is no good reason the people of Scotland should. To do so would wipe all memory of what the English owe the Scotts. There should be anger in the mind of all Scotts tonight. A just a righteous anger against all English peoples and especially the crown. I know and trust the Scottish people. They are better than the English. They are not responsible for killing millions of Irish by ignoring a famine in a act of defacto genocide. They are not responsible for conquering, enslaving, and murdering billions of peoples from the Americas to India, China and beyond. The Scottish People stood up tonight against the legacy of brutality that is that of England and the Crown. That fight must continue in any way that is necessary. All True Scotts should know that England must pay once and all for the sins and crimes she has committed against her fellow nations. They must not rest until restitution is made to all peoples for these crimes and for the crimes against the Scottish people. The fires have been lit and the night is not over for Scotland! If they continue to fight one day they will see all these wretched scum at the guillotines! Liberté, Egalité, Fraternité!

The "wh" sound they use is almost entirely gone in North America in favor of "w" in words like "where" and "which".

Ignore that Hawkins tit, Aberdeenshire finished the tally about 2am and we start counting Yes and No in a few minutes. We'll probably declare around 5am. Apparently I've been on TV. I hate that.

Scotland voting for independence would have given a moral boost to these other areas, where they are actually oppressed by the rulers. But a resounding loss like this will be a big setback. Hopefully they can overcome.
