Well its not so close at the moment 3 to 1
Dont know (yet).
Oh great another poll
W.A.T.P.
No I will not be voting for independence
The org polls are always closer than the National polls. I think we had a yes one recently.
I'd be interested in seeing local debates with invited guest speakers from interested groups or nationally recognisible MSPs to debate how Scottish Independence will affect us on a local level.
How will the budgets change for local councils?
How will local taxation be calculated?
How will the Scottish government implement any action plans to reduce our reliance on fossil fuels?
How will transport and communication change under an independent Scotland?
What value does an independent Scotland place on areas of outstanding beauty and Heritage?
How will Caithness benefit from job creation as a result of different policy making?
God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
Courage to change the things I can,
And wisdom to know the difference.

Some people are like Slinkies. They're really good for nothing. But they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs.
Looking at the poll results so far it does raise a problem in my mind. If 51% vote yes, it means that a very small minority of people will have decided for 49% of the population who wish to remain in the United Kingdom. Even if it was 56-65% for a yes vote the same remains true in my opinion. Surely something as important as Independence the bar should be far higher - something like a 80% or more required for a yes vote to get independence.
Just my opinion so please do not shoot the messenger!
There you go folks I might even make that day the day I have to come north to work - Anyone for dinner?
Personally i think everyone in Scotland who is entitled to vote, should have to vote. That way it is a true and fair vote of either yes, no or undecided which should all be on the ballot paper too. Proxy & postal votes included so there is no excuse not to vote either.

Interesting that the undecideds are quite statistically small. Every effort should be made by both sides to persuade these but in the end it won't really matter.
