There is no DevoMax on offer, there is a few extra powers not even agreed yet and already being rejected by Tory backbenches. Be clear if you vote No you are voting for the status quo and will more likely get bent over and rammed by Westminster..Originally posted by jemb View Post...not sure why you assume DevoMax would be screwed over. It actually makes a lot of sense for the UK as a whole.
.... if Salmond was planning to bring a Stuart back I might vote 'Yes'...is Duke Franz still alive? If we had a German as our king it might be easier to swing the EU thing.Comment

Do you only know one person in Glasgow?Originally posted by Unix View PostMarried with kids, all my family is voting Yes. Everyone I have met in Glasgow is voting Yes.
I sat in a cafe there on Saturday on byres road and me and a mate (Yes voter) counted the badges walking by, the score was 33 Yes and 27 No.
Balloons gave it to Yes, Cars with flags out of windows gave it to No.
I reckon the split in my place of work is more No than Yes and in my Wife's it's more Yes.
I have three kids, one eligible to Vote. He can tell me on Friday how he voted - it's his choice.
It'll be close, but I also sense a weariness with it all. Just wish it was Friday tbh.Comment

To me, that is a better way of getting an accurate poll than phoning people up at random and expecting them to tell you the truth.Originally posted by Unix View PostAnd it's those punters that get to vote.
Unless those nasty cybernats are forcing the nice No people to bet money on Yes

Do you think some people are voting Yes purely because they want to be a 'proper' EU member (unlike the UK's slightly maverick membership status) rather than because they GAS about independence?Originally posted by Old Greg View PostObvious I think. The Scottish Parliament would be sovereign, and could withdraw from the EU at any point through an Act. Under the current arrangement there is no way for the Scottish people or Parliament to gain independence except via an Act of the UK Parliament.Originally posted by MaryPoppinsI'd still not breastfeed a naziOriginally posted by vetranUrine is quite nourishingComment
