Well I'm back from my 15.5 hour stint. Only had 303 through the doors, one of which refused to take a referendum ballot paper, silly old bint.

Gray took too long to actually show he cares this time round.

That fat cunt should comfortably get a majority.

I think the AV vote will be interesting to see.

Fully expect a landslide No. Every voting slip I caught sight of today (unintentionally) had NO marked with an X. Then again, it is just one station used mainly by thick council estate cunts and hardly representative of the country.

Aye, looks like the Lib Dems are taking a right old kicking. The reality of being in government hitting home now.

In my station, piss poor. Total electorate was 2213, and 303 turned up. Around a sixth applied for a postal so if they all returned them, you are looking at 33% ish for my station. However in the ward it was a 39.3% turnout, the city overall was 41.82%

Liberal Democrats 32 (formerly 41)

Not even in the rural ward "Stocksbridge and Upper Don" either. Although the local Tory there became an Independent, so in effect there is one Tory, just not in name. The Greens hold 2 of the 3 seats in the Central ward, and held onto one of them yesterday.

Great night for the SNP by the looks of it, not sure if they have an overall majority at the moment.
Scotland could finally be heading for a referendum on independance very soon although it/when it happens it looks like it might ultimately be deafeted.

I think a yes vote for independence is a few generations away.

You carrying your balls in a wheelbarrow Wolfie?

I agree Knots, too many oldies are Labour through and through. It will take years for the mindset to change.

Good to see the Tories still getting battered though.
