He still wanted the Queen to be Head of State of an independent Scotland. The crown isn't allowed to be political so it must acknowledge Salmond's services to Scotland imo.

Salmond's divisive tactics turned Scot against Scot. He's not worth a fart.

Never! Get out of our Union! :p

I'm getting a good chuckle out of the NI news talking about whether or not Stormont will get more devolved powers now. Stormont is useless as it is, I don't know why they think new powers will make any difference.
 
I'm guessing this means the SNP are on their way out now.

Another Labour/Conservative Scotland? I think I'm gonna be sick.

So they should give him a knighthood for bringing about a process which has divided his nation (and will now take time to heal) and caused ill-feeling, violence and bullying on both sides?
 
Posted by a friend on Facebook which I find interesting. The Scotts have come out of this really well despite the No vote.

I stayed out of the Scottish independence debate, with the exception of a single tweet. Now it's over the real winner has been Scotland and the losers from the result is Northern England, Wales and Northern Ireland. Northern Ireland- not so much economically but politically. Wales the economics do not add up. The few of us who have access to restricted disaggregated labor and tax receipt data will tell you it literally does not add up! "Wales" / politicians might want more power but beware of what you wish for.

No they should give him a knighthood for being First Minister for 7 years, leader of the SNP for 20 years. Takes a lot to stay in politics that long and the Scottish people seem to like him, so I guess they'd say he did a lot of good things for them :)
