Myself, I believe we missed a trick, however, with so much uncertainty surrounding such a decision I can understand why there was a ‘NO’ vote.

However, the vitriol spouted in some of the recent letters, to the CFT, and the lunacy of some other groups who want a recount has no place in a ‘so-called’ civilised society and should now be confined to the rubbish bin.

It’s time for both sides of the argument to accept the result and move forward for the benefit of Scotland and its people.
