Regarding the possibility of a 'leave' vote as a trigger for another Scottish referendum; this will have no impact on how people vote outside Scotland. The constitutional status of Scotland with the rest of the UK matters infinitely more to people in Scotland than in the rest of the UK, where it really isn't a big issue...

Unless Scotland's votes keep everyone else in (which if it was that narrow wouldn't be the case anyway; see Northern Ireland, London etc; it changes how you cut the cake) then it would have an impact after the event. It's a good way to squeeze concessions from Westminster until 2020.

Leave has won- the moment Newcastle/Sunderland came in I got worried.

The North East is furious at the political establishment.  Both parties.

Hearing a Labour MP from Wearside on BBC try to put a positive spin on her constituents' decision was painful to watch.

The North East are moaning subsidy junkies with piss poor football teams Cheesy
