When was the last time a country voted for independence democratically? Was it Serbia & Montenegro splitting up in 2004?

The Edinburgh poll if anywhere near accurate is pretty surprising.

I really hope that you're right Vanessa.

But I can't help but feel that Scotland will vote yes, as I actually can understand the Scottish people that are voting yes more than the ones that are voting no because if it was England being controlled by a bigger nation, and we was being forced to have leaders that we don't want, certain emigration that we didn't want, and we had nationalistic Government parties rising up during the Local Elections that I would want to break away as well.

I definitely can understand the people that are voting yes, but as I've been brought up with us all being Great Britain, and I love us being Great Britain, I want us to keep Scotland and they vote no, but I just don't see it.

I'd be shocked if the YES was a majority.

Trust me this change will hurt both Scotland and the UK financially, Military wise, and the most important thing of them all, The Olympics.

It's not something that you want if you want Britain to be stable.

Kind of just glad it will be over with so everyone can move on. The non stop news coverage and bending over by political leaders so they don't move is embarrassing. If Scotland wants out of the union they are in and that is what will make them happy then **** it and so be it. Of course we aren't all going to move on unfortunately and I dread to think what may happen if no vote wins.

I am sticking to what I thought yesterday and expecting around 55% votes for 'no'.
