    Aberystwyth was awash with "No" Posters and Juncker and Barroso have holiday homes in Ceredigion so it's easy to pick up the wrong vibes.

    That's good then. Well done Scotland.

    Now we just need to get parliamentary approval for all those increased powers Scotland was promised at the last minute.

    The reality out there was that it was quite intimidating to some "No" voters on the build up to the vote. There was a huge pressure to vote Yes.

    It's like in a general election. There's so much left wing propaganda flying about, people (when asked by pollsters) just say they're undecided when they've already decided to vote Tory.

    Yes voter stabbed in Glasgow. I'm getting this 3rd hand. via the internet, so hardly reliable.

    But it looks like a busy night for the Glasgow Rozzers. Appears to be only a few hundred involved, but it doesn't take many to cause harm.
