Re: Scottish Independence

If I never post on this thread does it

A) mean that I am totally unbiased as a mod and therefore will not comment.

B) have no idea what any of you are talking about anymore and therefore cannot comment with any intelligence.

The short term effects might be quite a bumpy ride for the pound and the markets , plus various administrative questions for the transition period , but in the end , no not a lot really ... and I'd vote YES .....

That, combined with the emergence from 4 years of sulking by Gormless Gordon should ensure a resounding YES win.
