Young People In Scotland Are Heartbroken At Their Country Rejecting Independence

Many expressed their outrage online.

While Scotland itself may have voted No, it quickly became clear that a majority of young people voted Yes.

Looks like age had a big part to play in the Scottish referendum.

As the news broke, many took to Twitter to express their disappointment.

Absolutely gutted that Scotland has missed out on such an amazing chance

In a club sober and crying about the likelihood of a no vote. Actually crying. Didn't know how much it meant to me until now.

heavy got that big stomach drop feeling when you actual don't know what to do. so, so gutted.

I actual think I'm about to cry. I've never been so gutted in my life

I am still total heartbroken. Everything I ever thought my country stood for, gone in one night. This generation has jeprodised tomorrows.

never felt so passionate, positive and sure about anything in my life. feeling physically sick with this disappointment

I've never been so heartbroken in my fucking life I feel sick I feel disappointed I feel sickened to my mother fucking gut

So gutted, such a dull atmosphere today

Such a sad sad day for Scotland.

And disbelief quickly set in.

How the fuck are we better together? Serious think about it were fucking no

A lot was made of the fact that Glasgow was one of the few Yes strongholds.

Cin we make Glasgow am independent city !???

Moving to glasgow until I'm able to move away from the uk

Glasgow definitely purging the night like

And hatred of No-voting Edinburgh was expressed.

They were acutely aware of how the vote demographics played out.

It's the old farts who areny going to live much longer who fuckin ruined the future for young folk. Selfish bastards.

I think it's quite selfish the fact that it was the population of 65 years+ that denied our chance of independence; it's our future

"Get over it" aye wait and I'll just brush off the fact you pissed ma future right up the wall

There was bitterness at the rest of the UK.

Now 20% of my earnings still go down south for reasons that have nout to do with Scotland. Money grabbing bastards

Won't be long until people realise what big a mistake they have made!! ⚪️

Conspiracy theories were floated.

Imagine being the guy who had to rub out all the yes votes and change them to no votes. He must have had good wrist action

They were dubious about the future.

Rich get richer and the poor get poorer. It's sad that this is the truth and we had the chance for change.

Awell, least I know my 1st born will follow in his dads footsteps and work in tesco because I won't be able to afford his/her uni fees

There's single parents that can't feed their children cause they're on zero hour contracts. Away and tell them to be "graceful in defeat."

"Dont ANY of you complain when we are brought into another illegal war, or have a Tory/UKIP government that you hate. DONT YOU FUCKING DARE”

But overall, the mood was simply despondent.

If you voted no and cannot understand that people who voted yes are going to blame you for what they lost today, you're genuinely deluded

Not gonna lie I'm absolutely ashamed and embarrassed to be Scottish right now

years from now all you no voters will look back & realise how idiotic it was of u to think that scotland couldnt be an independent country

See tbh, I've never considered myself British. I never will. I'm Scottish. Am fuckin embarrassed about it right now but I am Scottish.

We REFUSED the opportunity to govern our own Country. Think about how ridiculous that is

Scotland the Brave?? surely we'll lose that title now, or miby just changed to Scotland the Shitebags

I'm not Angry Scotland, I'm just Disappointed.

Not happy. Fuck all you no voters. Fuck off down to England you fucking pricks

Everyone who voted yes we should make our own country with the money from the oil and just be loaded and sound

Even though there were some things everyone in the UK could agree on.

And in the end, there was only one reaction.

Shocked n gutted n away to get absolutely steaming
