Sleepy thoughts on the referendum

a) I am disappointed, obviously. Not as much as I was at the end of the AV referendum, but still.
b) I am still impressed by the turnout. Shows what happens when you have an actual, meaningful, choice to make.
c) I hope that this has been enough of a kick to Westminster that they do something about it.
d) I suspect that they don't know what.
e) For _me_, extra powers for Scotland are not the answer - fixing the UK is. Make it somewhere I wouldn't vote to leave.

The first time Obama ran, there were huge lines at the polls; there wasn't a voter turnout that big before or since.
