I do wonder how they managed to canvas the opinion of the entire Borders population. . Given that they surely didn't ask livestock, this poll must have been taken yesterday when there were an influx of people in the Selkirk area. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BerwickMad Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 https://twitter.com/NikkiBhoy67/status/510100875382382592/photo/1I fail to see the issue there. They want a mixed audience surely for fairness. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You fail to see the issue of the BBC telling people to state opinions they don't have? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperTon Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 (edited) I fail to see the issue there. They want a mixed audience surely for fairness.What? You think it's alright for the bbc to ask people to pretend they're undecided or voting no just so they can balance a crowd? Here's an idea, why not ask people who are undecided or voting 'no' to attend? Edited September 11, 2014 by SuperTon 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ICTChris Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 33% - 67% Yes - No in the Borders, excluding undecideds obviously. YouGov poll coming out tonight apparently. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BerwickMad Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 I thought they were wanting an equal number of Yes and No's. If they're excluding undecideds then fair enough that's a bit stupid. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anonapersona Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 33% - 67% Yes - No in the Borders, excluding undecideds obviously. YouGov poll coming out tonight apparently. Absolutely scunnered the Borders is leaning that way. Still, not surprised. The number of stuck-up country bumpkins is shocking. I did enjoy sabotaging their fox hunts back in the day though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICTChris Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 Someone on Twitter who posts about the odds (Neil Lovat) posted earlier that the market for Yes was shortening ahead of YouGov, suggesting that the poll is favourable to Yes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My dad is from the Borders and my mum used to like saying that they were all cap-doffing serfs who voted whichever way the Duke of Roxburghshire told them UDI for the borders in the event of a Yes vote? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikingTON Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 33% for the Borders seems a pretty decent return tbh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cowboy Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 I wonder what the yes/no % for scots born voters only is, compared to English/n irish residents here? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cardinal Richelieu Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 Just did a mammoth survey on Yougov (and got paid the princely fee of £1 for doing so ... kerching). I'm guessing it's too late for tonight (if there is one coming out tonight) so there must be another one in the pipeline before next week. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BerwickMad Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 I've disagreed with a lot of your posts but never have I seen you post something so daft. Sure you don't want to retract it?I read it as "they asked to say 'if' they were No or undecided voters because the yes voters were outweighing the No's."Obviously there was no 'if' there. Noticed after reading it a second time. In my defence, it isn't the easiest message to read! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I now assume that you'll agree that it was an outrageous thing to have happened. Edited September 11, 2014 by Granny Danger 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
