Scotland
Is the vote about Scottish independence? More likely to be about wanting a more responsive political system – being heard, acknowledged, responded to. If the UK Parliament reflected Scottish politics even a little more, I doubt we’d be on the edges of our seats tonight. A straw in the wind for European politics. This part-Scots, part-English family is in for the long haul tonight!

It’s a dreich day in Edinburgh today, matching the mood of many…
