Bet “No” wins by at least 20%.

I am a staunch NO voter.

Is this "last minute yes momentum" real?

Hard to tell, probably yes.

I don’t think it’ll win though. Still another two weeks. Still time for the NO’s to get a shock and finish strong, also enough time for the YES to fail in dealing with questions OR to shoot themselves in the foot.

Too much being made out of one poll imo. I still say it’ll be 55-60%, probably nearer to 60. Hopefully much more, I’d love a clear 65-70% NO vote.

If NO prevails, 51-49%, does it prevail? Heck of a decision to allow such a close vote.

Considering the thuggery prevalent amongst the Yes camp, I’m not surprised no voters are keeping their head down.

If Scotland owns the north sea oil fields, I’d tell the UK to take a hike.

It would get some, not all.

And it was cultivated using British money, in other words, it was over 90% funded by English, Welsh and N Irish taxpayers. Its Britain’s oil, not just Scotland’s.

Thuggery I have seen at first hand (vile abuse of Jim Murphy in Ayr).

The most astonishing thing about this whole campaign is how nearly half the Scottish people are following this demagogue Salmond into the abyss. His economic policies are some of the most transparent and ludicrous bullshit I’ve ever read in my life, and he STILL hasn’t made clear his currency plan if we, inevitably, refuse to go along with his currency union.

They follow the word of a guy who calls himself ‘Reverend’ Stewart Campbell, a games journalist who said of the terrorist atrocities that took place 13 years ago tomorrow and I quote: “9/11 was brilliant. I watched it all on TV and I laughed the whole time.” And this prize prat’s ‘Wee Blue Book’ is treated like the word of god himself by the yessers, despite being thoroughly contradicted by practically every authoritative source.

Looking at the ‘Yes Scotland’s facebook and forum page is like a gaze into the mind of a madman, their hatred of the English, sorry ‘Westminster’ is such that they have completely lost touch with reality and are prepared to do ANYTHING to stick them in the eye even if it means destroying their own economy and that of the rUK to spite them.

Debating with them and persuading the Scots to stay using positive arguments is starting to feel a lot of the time like trying to keep your head and trying to persuade a raving lunatic who is waving a loaded gun around threatening to shoot everybody to put it on the floor and calm down. Why has half of your country seemingly gone stark raving mad?!?

I agree with absolutely every word you said. You have no idea how desperate I am for a great big ******* margin of victory on the 18th.
