North East 69.31% and then we have Scotland with a miserly 67.21% turnout, gosh, it was ONLY Northern Ireland with a lower turnout of 62.71% (why even the good ole Taffs came in with 71.7%!) so it's total nonsense to say the will of the Scottish people was to stay in EU?? duh!
I must have missed the bit where it said in the referendum the different regions/parts of the UK were going to vote and the results were to say whether that area had a right to dictate about staying or going, silly me thought it was a UK vote of all eligible voters saying IN or OUT and a simple majority democratically won. For Christs sake !.
