Anyone put a bet on yet?

Bet with what though? If a yes vote, Scotland will not be able to keep the £. It is the UK pound, the BRITISH pound. It is not the English, Scottish, Welsh or Irish pound, It is the BRITISH pound and if Scotland wants out of the UK , then they have to forfeit the currency too. Scotland will have to apply to Brussels for EU membership and apply for the euro. That will take a long while to do. Scotland will not be in the EU. BRITAIN is an EU member, not it's component parts. It would be a disaster for the entire UK if there is a yes vote but the yes bigots don't care about what happens on the 19th, they care only for the 18th and getting a dangerous yes vote. Heaven help us ALL. !!

Er, bet Yes or No ?
No, but I'd bet on 'no' winning.
I trust bookies' odds more than opinion polls. The current odds are :-
YES - 11/4
NO - 10/3 ON
so my bet is on NO (placed some time ago)
Yes I'm with Wharton on this one. It is true to say that the odds on a No vote have lengthened somewhat. A couple of weeks ago it was about 1/6, now it is about 1/3. But the bookies don't usually get it that wrong when it comes to voting matters.
Odds on a 'no' maybe but there will no doubt be a 'Stuart's inquiry' !!!!!
Its the anti-Tory vote that is to blame here, not a positive vote for independence. The Scots just want to give dave a bloody nose, but they haven't worked out what will happen the day after the vote. Short-termism of the worst kind.
