The Scots are voting between a Turd Sandwich and a Giant Douche. The result in both cases gives them bad government.

There are many things you can say about the government of the UK but "tasty buffet" is not one of them. |

My area result was due 02.00
Now almost 1 hour 50 LATE IF this trend continues, going to be a long night for some. Lots of areas were due to declare at 03.30 - so results may be thick & fast in the next few minutes - or not, depending on the Local Gov't staff doing the count |

Is this decided by a majority of the popular vote nationwide, or does it matter that different areas vote a particular way.

MOST heavy industry was traditionally West Coast/Glasgow/Clyde Edinburgh - not sure, probably NO MOST of Scotland is rural though, with few cities One of the bigger cities, and the most expensive outside of London - Aberdeen - is predicted to go NO (oil town) Other than that - nothing is set in stone My area was due 02.00, then 03.00, now 04.00 (so even late at the 3rd attempt...) |
