To a degree I think people are so intimidated by the YES baying mobs they are too scared to say publicly who they are voting for. This is not a nice time to live here. I wouldn't put a NO THANKS sticker on my car, house, etc.
Problem is that Adolf Salmond has lured the gullible into believing his promised land of increased spending with no tax raises. A socialist utopia. There are a lot of people living in poverty and this is what they want to hear. Factor in the Tims and anti English Tartan Army clowns and unfortunately that's a good 40% of the population up here. It will be close. Any big news story in the next week could tip the balance either way.
People with mortgages are starting to shit themselves though. As they have a loan in sterling to English based lenders and if there is a currency change they might be fucked. I've moved all cash savings out of Scotland already just in case there is some Cyprus style restriction on moving capital in the event of independence.
I'm scared, I'm British I don't want to wake up on the 19th and be a foreigner.
