Cable Forum - Will Scotland Leave the UK?

The Telegraph have picked up on this too.

"A TNS poll conducted earlier this week found the referendum contest was level pegging, but it was conducted between August 27 and Thursday last week. The new poll was conducted between Friday and yesterday after it emerged there had been a surge for Yes. With the race tightening with just seven days to go, observers had widely expected the poll to show a lead for the Yes campaign as Survation has consistently put Yes support higher than other pollsters."

I'm taking nothing for granted. From day one I always new every single person who wanted independence would turn up at the polls to vote next week. It had long troubled me that those who planned to vote No would become complaisant due to polls continually showing a wide lead. The past 7 days has brought into focus that people who plan to vote No must turn up at the polls at all cost.

Very true but it's a totally unedifying experience. I'm not sure deploying Gordo was wise.

What's Gordo getting for helping save daves backside, Dave denied him the top job at the world bank not so long ago iirc

Plenty of bullying today towards the YES campaign:

I was going to post a picture of Salmond like that, but no matter how much I shrunk it, I still couldn't get all of his nose on the screen....

Empires and nation states are not immune to break-up, but there is little precedent for a hitherto stable modern democracy splitting apart in peacetime, in the middle of an economic recovery. This is not the time for recrimination. For the moment, it is enough for this newspaper to declare that the path of separation is a fool’s errand, one fraught with danger and uncertainty.

When you consider how many of our past and present UK armed forces personnel come from Scotland, there would be a large pool to find any trained dissidents in.

Negative argument = scaremongering
Positive argument - jingoism

Blair should be classed as toxic anywhere he turns up.

Bliar, Brown and the rest of his New Labour cronies. If Scotland wants to vote for their ilk good let them do so after independence. ;)

Project Fear is turning into Project reality. Salmond can dismiss this as scaremongering all he likes, he did so again today, but it's happening.
