Scotland Decides - Andy Murray Says 'Yes' Finally, What Are Russell Brand And Other Celebs Saying Today?

Come the hour, come every man, woman and canine participants' opinion on whether Scotland and her residents should be going it alone, or stay with the Union.

Andy Murray is the latest, and arguably most influential, luminary to cast his vote (metaphorically, seeing as he lives in Surrey) into the bag, tweeting overnight that the 'No' campaign negativity has swayed him, and he's saying a big, fat 'Yes'.

What have other celebs had to say on the matter? Here's a quick run-through of some of those who've defied the trolls on both sides to stick in their penn'orth (or 'wee radge', as it will henceforth be known). And what does what they have to say, say about them?


It's almost like he's never thought about it before...

Huge day for Scotland today! no campaign negativity last few days totally swayed my view on it. excited to see the outcome. lets do this!

I've never voted but if I was Scottish I'd vote yes.

Big day in Scotland tomorrow #indyref. My head says no and my heart shouts it - but whatever happens, I hope we're all friends by Saturday.

Literary...

"No to independence!"

Sounds a bit silly and weird, doesn't it?

#YES it does.

Adult language alert! Well, it wouldn't be Frankie Boyle without the c-bomb coming out somewhere...

You can ask yourself if you trust Clegg, Cameron and Miliband, or you can vote Yes and never think about the cunts ever again.

Process-applauder (is that a 'Yes' by any other name?)

Hello Scotland, how the hell are you ? If I may say you're looking very democratic this evening. #indyref

And finally, there's always one... full props to 'The Apprentice' winner Dr Leah Totton for not failing to miss a commercial opportunity...

In the case of a 'yes' vote, Dr Leah Clinics will be offering 50% off the removal of any #UnionJack tattoos made obsolete by #indyref
