Watch: Taiwanese animators turn their hands to Scottish independence

By: Catherine Neilan

Taiwanese agency Next Media Animation – famous for its snarky take on such global issues as Tiger Woods' infidelity and the Royal Wedding – has created another animation. 
 
This time its focus is the Scottish independence referendum, and it features a slightly questionable Scottish accent. 
 
The video includes highlights such as the Queen crying buckets, Nick Clegg in a baby pouch carried by David Cameron and Alex Salmond literally being stabbed in the back by RBS. 
 
It also has Braveheart riding a unicorn, Rab C Nesbitt and The Simpson's character Willie the Groundskeeper who has come out in favour of independence. 
 
Watch the video below:
 
 
 
It tops a hefty day in terms of the Scottish referendum, with the Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy claiming independence would be bad for the whole of the EU, polls suggesting the lead is narrowly held by the No camp, social media stats showing what people are talking about and where, and of course, what the bookies thought. 
 
Read our guide to what will happen when the polls open tomorrow and when the announcement will be made here.
