    England will vote to stay in it tomorrow and it will be even stronger as a result. It's only ever been going in one direction. Granted they rushed into letting too many poorer countries in too soon but they will work through it.

    Nobody will ever leave.
    That's now looking like a rather foolish post now. Not only has Britain decided to leave but I would suggest the whole deck of cards will now come tumbling down starting with France next.

    Well that's me voted. I voted out. If I wasn't sure how I was going to vote then a letter through the door last night from the SNP would have convinced me to vote out, just to piss that lot of sanctimonious c*nts right off.

    I don't mind anything through from either campaign, but when it comes from a political party then they can GTF. It should be a free, open vote without the need for the party machines and their apparatchiks handing out leaflets based on fear.

    So it's more to do with the SNP if you are being honest?

    I've had plenty of leaflets from the rest of them. I also got one featuring poppies and war heroes on the front with the quote "they fought for or freedom - vote leave"

    Well as I said when I started this thread, I have voted OUT. Not even my beloved SNP party convinced me otherwise. It could well be I wake up tomorrow and still be in the EU, but that's the nature of the beast. When my parents originally voted for the common market in 75, they would never have imagined it would turn into what it is now. That is only going to continue until it is a federation with a single government. I maybe accused of being far fetched, but the EU will continue to evolve into something the people didn't vote for. I don't want the UK or Scotland top be any part of that.

    I never, ever read anything put through my door from a political party. I am able to make up my own mind without their lies to influence me. I was an SNP voter, up until last months election, but their stance on this vote has pissed me off greatly.

    For me this vote shouldn't have been about party politics, but the SNP being the SNP couldn't help themself. If the fecker comes to me door tonight asking how I have voted he may regret the day he put on an SNP badge and knocked on my door.

    That's not really the SNPs fault to be fair. They were always going to push for a remain vote, while hoping they didn't get it.

    I am not sure. Jim Sillars states that there was no explicit terms in the manifesto that called for another referendum. This means the SNP would not have a mandate to hold one in this parliament. You can forget all the... something significant happening like a vote to leave the EU cos they knew there would be a referendum and this was not in their manifesto either.

    I think this is more that the SNP have to be seen by their voters to look at options around a referendum. Personally, I cannot see that happening until after 2020 but the SNP is unlikely to get another majority so it is unlikely to happen for years to come. Sorry to disappoint but I think this is the reality.

    Only my opinion mind.

    Doesn't exactly tie up with what you said in post 157 " If I wasn't sure how I was going to vote then a letter through the door last night from the SNP would have convinced me to vote out, just to piss that lot of sanctimonious c*nts right off."

    I got a letter pushed through my door last night at 9:30 from the SNP, it went straight in the (recycle) bin unread, just like all the others I have received, it wasn't read just the fact I received a letter from them hacked me off.

    I just don't like the way that the SNP machine has politicised the debate up here and spun the same type of lies which the Westminster parties used during the independence referendum.
