    My Labour friends on Facebook are going to be insufferable with the cheering on of Brown if it's a 'no'!
    “I could see that, if not actually disgruntled, he was far from being gruntled.” - P.G. Wodehouse
  • Does that mean Brown is redeeming himself and is forgiven for ruining the economy?
    Been away for a while.
  • Andy Murray has come out as a separatist (surprise) and a No pensioner has been punched in the face!
  • Why would I give a toss what an 'Economist' thinks???


    I can make up my own mind...

    I've decided to put skin in the game. If No wins I can gloat about the fact that Westminster will continue to steal all the tax from the Scots and only send a token 110% of the amount stolen back the other way. If Yes wins I pocket a £420 profit which I will use to fund a guard to shoot any rampaging Scots who mauraud around the Esher area when their economy collapses.

    Not Gordon Brown, emergency national treasure (until tomorrow), I hope?

    It's looking like a NO, which I can't believe.

    Why would they do that? Have some self respect!!

    It's still close enough in the polls, but Betfair's drifted out to 5.8.
