I think today's result in Wales is pretty impressive - full details here ...... shame about Monmouthshire: if only another 161 people had voted Yes! ;-)
I know the turnout was relatively low, but just contrast today's figures with those that were achieved in 1997.
I'd class that as a 'devolutionary success' - and good to see all the main parties putting aside the arguments about gradualism and coalescing around an achievable development ...
... wonder if Scottish Labour and the Scottish National Party might ever manage to do such again??

It's regrettable that the SNP and Labour can't work together on issues of devolution.
There's too much bitterness between the two parties and a lot of SNP supporters are strongly anti Labour.
Thanks for the comment - I do agree; and sadly just as many of my Labour colleagues are strongly anti-SNP :-(
I hope Labour does run a positive campaign in the next few weeks and if they do win pledge to work with the SNP on a few issues.
