How is Westminster going to fix this once and for all so that this subject doesn't come up again? There's still a huge swathe of Scotland's people who aren't happy with things.

Just back from the East Lothian count - wood burner on and a cup of tea after a very long day!

Very relieved it's looking good for NO.

Well I'm off to bed.

I hope Scotland can pull together after this, but as far as motivating the populace to take part in democracy? Wow, well done absolutely staggering.

Agree the turnout is pretty staggering, just goes to show that people do care if they feel their vote counts and they will be listened to. One can only hope that this wakes up the parties and voters across the UK and we move towards a more representative democracy.

E Ayreshire says no to drugs.

[Edinburger]

Sturgeon was fair there.

At least they didn't try to locate it on a map.

To be fair... she's setting out her stall to be the next leader.

Doing a fair job of it too.
