...as their reporting of the 'Yes' vote being a tiny ahead in one poll has positively euphoric!

It's part of the establishment plan to startle the apathetic No camp into turning out.

But hang on - according to many on here the BBC is outrageously biased against independence. 😕

I think it will end up quite a big win for "No" on the day (55-60% vs 40-45%)

My guess is that the opinion polls are quite a way out - similar to '92 Westminster elections and UKIP backing before becoming mainstream. I think people are a little embarrassed to back the No camp (in a kind of slightly "treacherous" way) when asked face to face, but in the comfort of the polling booth will go for it.

My gut feeling is to agree with Stoner on the vote.

The BBC doesn't "want" anything though, it's a hopelessly directionless organisation at the moment.

I think the word you're looking for may be 'pliable'.

closer than that. 47-48 : 53-52..

Turnout - I'd think - is going to be pretty good - 85 up towards 90% form my little bubble of observation. Which is reassuring.

The establishment have pulled out the big guns now! A pregnant princess should distract hoi polloi for 10 more days! 🙂
