    There'll be a lot of wrangling about increased devolution powers afterwards, to be sure, and I imagine that another referendum might be held in about 15 to 20 years.
    If they vote No to independence, I don't see another referendum for a long time. However I do think the Scottish Parliament will be granted more powers to dictate their own national policies since while all votes haven't been counted, they do appear to be very close currently with at least 6 regions still needing to be counted in full.

    Cameron and Miliband have in effect promised new powers, so I think that's a certainty, but the details are going to be tough to hammer out.

    So Captain Britain's powers won't diminish but the Scottish Parliament may get more international powers to strengthen the will of their national interest.

    That should technically mean a small power up in faith for Braddock.

    Well, this thread seems somewhat redundant, this morning.

    Congratulations Scotland, on making the choice to stay in the Union.

    I'm proud of you.

    And with the conclusion of the vote, the thread has served its purpose.
