Re: Will Scotland Leave the UK?

There's been a lot of speculation today about all those who have never registered to vote previously specifically registering to vote YES. The theory being who would register to vote, or vote for the first time, to say no to something.

Well me, my wife, my Mum, my Dad, my 2 brothers, my mother-in-law, my father-in-law, my brother-in-law and sister-in-law are going to the polls tomorrow to vote No. Of the 10 of us only 5 have voted previously. The younger members of the family are either voting for the first time, or have not been registered to vote previously. This is a pattern I've seen amongst friends and family. Of course this might not be the case everywhere but from my own experience, people who have shown no interest in politics previously are signing up just to vote No.
