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.

You're foreigner already just like me.

Both RBS & Lloyds have stated they will relocate to England in the event of a Yes vote.

Unfortunately whatever the outcome, a lot of damage has been done

Yeah, LBG were being cagey about it until it got out in the press the other week but internally it's been widely known since they announced the referendum. For all the claims about 'waiting until the people of Scotland decide' they're ready to start pulling out pretty much straight away. Keep a head office in Edinburgh that'll be treated as a foreign division like the offices in Australia but everything else that can be moved south will be within the first 12 months.
