    Will Darling and Cameron try to blame this on Salmond or take some responsibility for the narratives of intimidation and violence that they've been spattering these last weeks that leave goons like this feeling justified in starting real mindless disorder?

    The sheer hypocrisy of branding weeks of peaceful, joyful Yes gatherings throughout the city as public intimidation when your own supporters wait till the referendum's over to try and claim a victory by default... Sad times.

    Darling and Cameron? Really? Earlier this week we were implored to consider Cameron's potential sorrw and heartbreak at losing, and Darling, AKA Mr Boring, was hardly a strong presence during the campaign. (Those eyebrows though...).

    that leave goons like this feeling justified in starting real mindless disorder?

    I'm not convinced by this argument, both because of who you're talking about and because the mindless disorder of goons doesn't require justification.

    Glad to hear so many tributes paid to Salmond today, from both camps. Truly a remarkable politician, the likes of which are few and far between. I wonder what he'll do now...
