  1. Then to whom do you want to pay your taxes?

    Scotland for Scotland or RUK for RUK?

    I don't have a choice where my tax goes, I work in England and live in Scotland like a good few others around Dumfries, Annan, Gretna and other border towns. My company is registered in England so my tax will probably go to the treasury down south no matter what way I vote.

    If anyone can clarify this type of situation that myself and others in the same position find themselves, then please do.

  2. This place will be hilarious if Yes wins.

    It'll be fun either way.

    One lot will be on champagne, the other lot on Prozac.

    Whatever the result, the final outcome will still be the same. Do what your told, pay your taxes and shut the fcuk up. That is how I see it.

  3. Tryfield has previously admitted to voting for the Tories, which tells you all you need to know about his mindset. He's part of the reason for South Ayrshire being awash with political embarrassment.

    Tryfield has a total disregard for all politicians. They all lie, most fiddle cash and some are just pure and simply criminals. That's at all levels.

  4. You seem to worry about price fluctuations an awful lot considering you must have placed your bet a long while ago.

    Bet was struck on my birthday last year. Be raging if odds don't come in less than 3/1. Every point above 3/1 is a ton less for me. Boo.

  5. What makes him think that? Last minute changes of mind? A shy yes voter syndrome? Or a full-on conspiracy theory against the pollsters?

    Maybe he's been goggle eyed at Wings over Scotland and other websites that rant and rave whilst only focusing on their side of the debate. Caught in a bubble. There are certainly a few NO voters who have also let themselves get caught up in their own beliefs. It's almost like two new religions have been born in Scotland. I'll remain agnostic until the 18th Sept.

  6. I have no interest in the phoney war of polling so this is a genuine question

    why do both camps get all excited about figures when don't knows are stripped out, given that don't knows appear to be key in this referendum? Isn't it all a bit false?

    Yep.

    The way the campaign and mud slinging has gone on...I won't be surprised if the Don't Knows turn into Don't Cares who don't bother voting.

  7. YouGov is infamously Labour-leaning.

    Indeed. YouGov's president, Peter Kellner, a friend of Tony Blair, is married to Baroness Cathy Ashton. The highest paid female politician around(even paid more than Obama) and who has never been elected to anything in her life. Blair made her a Baroness so she could get into the Lords to get the Lisbon Treaty through, which she did.

    Still, I don't think YouGov would fabricate figures as high as a 20 point difference. Perhaps they merely doubled a 10 point lead.

  8. A wee local poll in the Ayr Advertiser.

    I also note that from the start of this month Bet365 odds have gone:

    06/06/2014 - YES 11/4 - NO 1/4

    13/06/2014 - YES 10/3 - NO 1/5

    16/06/2015 - YES 7/2 - NO 1/6

    YES voters should be lumping on now......unless they are holding out for 4/1 or 9/2.
