Gordon Brown tells Scots: let us be a nation, united again - as it happened

Scotland’s experiment of allowing more than 100,000 teens aged 16 to 17 to take part in this week’s independence referendum has demonstrated how the youngest voters can be some of the most enthusiastic in a mature democracy, the Associated Press reports.
Shawn Pogatchnik for AP writes that more than 90% of the teenagers registered to vote and, to the surprise of many analysts, proved not so ready to rebel against their parents as might have been expected.
Among the voters was Sinead McLoughlin, 17, who is quoted as saying:

A lot of my friends say they voted just like the rest of their family. There seemed to be more disagreement between the older ones, really. I think more younger people did vote yes. But we weren’t quite the revolutionaries the SNP thought we’d be.

McLoughlin was among those who voted yes and was crestfallen at the result. She added.

I’m not too, too sad. I’m hoping the pandas will cheer me up!

I’m going to wrap up the blog now. Thanks for reading.
