Scottish Elections all over

Well, how about that? Seems like the new fangled multi-voting system was a bit too ambitious after all. And my clever tactical voting ensured that Edinburgh South escaped the clutches of New Labour, and the Greens are still represented in the Lothians (just). I'm pleased about the SNP victory in the polls, but I don't think they'll be able to force through an independence referendum unless they make some very crafty coalition negotiations.

Anyway, chances are I'll not be here whenever in the distant future such a vote takes place, so I won't spend too much time considering how an english person in scotland should approach the question.
