Economists Urge Scotland to Vote No......
Comments

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. Wodehouse0

Does that mean Brown is redeeming himself and is forgiven for ruining the economy?Been away for a while.0
-
Andy Murray has come out as a separatist (surprise) and a No pensioner has been punched in the face!0
-
Why would I give a toss what an 'Economist' thinks???
I can make up my own mind...0 -
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.0

Not Gordon Brown, emergency national treasure (until tomorrow), I hope?0 -
It's looking like a NO, which I can't believe.
Why would they do that? Have some self respect!!0 -

It's still close enough in the polls, but Betfair's drifted out to 5.8.0
