It is obvious that all these big companies are scaremongering becuase if Scotland does go it alone the big companies are the ones that will lose out, they don't care about the people of Scotland they care about their profits.

Aye

There are still a lot of undecideds. All to play for in the final soundbytes - which is what will surely sway anyone who hasn't been able to decide until this stage.

I'd imagine if you are undecided at this stage you're more likely to vote No.

An online bookmaker is so confident of a win for the No camp it has already started paying out to those who staked money on it. Betfair said it was paying out a 'six-figure sum' despite the polls narrowing. It said gambling patterns indicate a 79 per cent likelihood of a No vote.

- Vote yes.

It's a crying shame that BT seem to be shading it.

I will be extremely surprised (and delighted) if the Yes camp makes a late surge and gets over the line. Unfortunately bookies tend to get these things right.

Either way, around half of Scots are going to get the exact opposite of what they want which is a tragedy in itself.

Interesting times. In 20 years these Islands will be composed of Scotland (GDP er capita €33000, England (GDP per capita £27000, Wales (GDP per capita  €28000), Ireland (GDP per capita €45000) and Larnia (capital Newtownabbey, GDP per capita 150,000,000 Carsons = £15,000).
If at first you don't succeed, then goto Plan B

The odds on a Scottish No vote are not as short as  Dublin's were against Donegal.Anything can happen

Owned by a major Tory Donor. More favours being called in. Buttons paid out to try and change the momentum.

Did they push the odds of a Yes way out?

Think the No vote will win narrowly but Jesus, Mary & Joseph I would love to see the reaction if Yes prevails.
