How many people were asked in Dundee and Motherwell I wonder :roll: 100%? Total bollocks. I hope they vote for it and live with the consequences. One thing, will they have their own army, airforce and navy or are they going to claim neutral in any wars like the cowards of Sweden and Switzerland? That Salmond geezer is just on an ego trip.

They asked exactly no-one.

As it says this is the percentage of people that have put money down in a bet and which way they went. Its not even asking if they want independence, or expect it, its just a chart showing how the betting is going in those cities, some who vote NO may bet on a Yes outcome, and the reverse is also true.

The betting for no was 1/10 on last week not many people are going to punt on that unless you are loaded.u

Living south of Scotland, no one has told me how much extra in tax I will have to pay to subsidise all the changes should the yes vote win.

The Better Together campaign has been very poorly run, instead of concentrating on the positive reasons for staying in the union they have tried to use scare tactics from day one which has only served to alienate a great deal of their own supporters and the undecided by portraying Scotland as a weak country unable so survive on its own merits, that patronising sexist advert showing the poor befuddled woman relying on her husband for advice was excruciating to watch.

They have taken an almost guaranteed odds on winning position and potentially blown it, I think it may be very close although I suspect the No vote might squeak it, That said the Better Together campaign will deserve no credit for it, they would have secured a bigger majority by keeping their mouths shut for the last two years.

We need a Yes vote, the Yes movement is the Scottish people massing together for the generations to come. Many never been involved in mainstream politics or voted before, the power is being ripped and pulled back to the grass roots, Enjoy the video, power or powerless.

Let the English vote on it too. I vote yes as scots get more government money per head than any other country in the UK. If we get rid of the Scots the rest of the UK will benefit! :nana

If I was voting I would be more worried about a Scotland being run by a UKIP (inspired) government than anything else.
Is Farage popular north of the border?
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

If they wanted to keep you they'd make a far better job of it than they have been wouldn't they? Just going through the motions that's all, please run free Scots people, enjoy yourselves an live long and happy independent lives.

Just think it's a bit much that the rest of the UK don't get a say in it too! :hmmmm
