And offered her support for Devo Max.
Nothing would make me happier than @UKLabour stating now that we get Devo Max in the event of a 'no' vote.

Devo Max means that Scotland would be in charge of most of its own laws, with the exceptions being foreign affairs and defence. This BBC News article provides a good explanation.
She didn't leave it there, though, and stuck around on Twitter to debate the issue with fans.

She offered some pretty sharp responses.

She defended her donation to Better Together.

And her political opinions of the NHS.

She said the reason she is debating with fans is that the referendum is an important issue.

And people are passionate on both sides of the debate.

She ended the debate with this thought.
I want to thank all the people tweeting me lovely messages. Don't worry about me - to paraphrase Albus Dumbledore...
