I know of 1 example personally:BiL has emigrated to USA,claimed it was a holiday s o got a postal vote! Somewhat backfired as he left the actual form filling to his son,who voted No rather than his desired Yes
Even seen one complete fruitloop claim the English are now coming to make us all slaves!!! Gawd I hope that one isnt allowed to breed!

Salmon didn't do anything wrong.
I'm sorry what?He lied to his fellow countrymen. Sold them a dream based on promises he couldn't possibly make (and had no right to make). Blatantly skirted round direct questions relying instead on a handful of throwaway soundbytes - then shouted down anyone who tried to point out the fact that he hadn't in fact answered the question posed to him. He accused anyone who wouldn't toe the party line of scaremongering - yet the yes campaign contained little more than this dressed up in the veil of positivity. He made outright threats towards the UK regarding the debt - then threw "what are you going to do - invade" in our face like a primary school child would. He has driven a wedge down the centre of Scotland to achieve nothing but his own political aims - and tried to break up a union that me and my ancestors have worked fought and died for without us even having a say. He doesn't even respect the will of the 2 million or so Scots who voted against his crusade - and barely has enough dignity to even mention them in his speeches.
Sorry - but that doesn't make him "okay" in my book.

The media are portraying this as a great victory for 'the Union'.
Even as a wee English bd, I can see that it was too close to call. And what's the chances of most 'No' votes born of uncertainty, rather than the preservation of the Union?!
We Snotty English shouldnt fool ourselves; the Scottish still hate us.
(as we remain totally indifferent to 'them')
True. Scotland will never be happy. It's not happy NOW even though it gets lots of sweeties and is about to get more.Even as a wee English bd, I can see that it was too close to call. And what's the chances of most 'No' votes born of uncertainty, rather than the preservation of the Union?!

Sturgeon will make life difficult for Westminster by making out the extra powers aren't enough, thus consolidating her power in the Scottish parliament. And round we go again.

Salmon didn't do anything wrong. He seemed to be a man of principle ....
He lied to the Scottish Parliament when he said he had taken professional advice with regard to getting into the EU.He then spent £20,000 of the taxpayers money to try and prevent that lie from surfacing.
He was eventually exposed as a liar - as the truth came out.
In the last week - he says he has spoken to Italy, France, Spain etc - with regard to EU membership.
Everyone of them have come back and said - no conversations have ever taken place.
The man is a habitual liar. He can't help it.
The lies over security on his expenses
The inflated expenses on his trips to Westminster
The leaked Swinney document that says iScotland can't afford to pay pensions at the same level after 4 years.
I could go on and on...

The worrying thing is, nearly half the Scottish electorate couldn't see through it.

Kicking off in George square, unionists ran in to the yessers. Burning of union flags and chants of 'Brits out' wasn't going to be tolerated. Not that I'm condoning it (Rioting).
The BBC reporter seemed to think he was in Beirut rather than George Square; a few dozen wkers, probably with a drink in them, kicking off and being arrested does not a riot make. Olf said:
I fking love this. It's great. Mili-fking-brain has now said the English will have to wait! So he'll hand more devolved powers to the scots but use his Scots MPs to stop the English getting it? Well done - sounds a fking great idea!
He can say what he likes, nothing can change outwith the will of parliament and he does not control that. If he attempts to carry this into the GE then he is toast; the English electorate are already massively pissed off with the fusckers and are not as dim as he would like to think.Fordy Bob said:

No...that's Glasgow for you. The same city that have voted YES on the back of thousands of benefit cheats and drug users.The vote is over, they should get over it as well.

If you look at the map of the referendum the only 4 places that have voted YES are the same one with the biggest unemployed and drug use population in Scotland.
