The BBC has called the Scottish independence referendum for the No side. The pro-independence Yes side did win some notable victories, Glasgow for example, but not enough votes overall to succeed.
Now it falls to David Cameron to face down angry dissent in the Tory caucus and make good his promises to the Scottish people if they supported No. That's not going to be easy and could lead to a Tory revolt but there'll be absolute hell to pay if the Scots who tipped the vote Cameron's way are given cause to feel they've been had by Whitehall.
