How many facts do you need? How factual can future predictions (the clues in the name) be?

I'm undecided.

I'm still reading as much of the "facts" as possible.

There are probably as many unknowns and uncertainties as there are facts. That will make people nervous. A yes vote is a leap of faith (in my opinion)

And a No vote is just as uncertain for Scotland's future. That's what people seem to forget. All we've heard from Labour, Tories and the Lib Dems is they will give us more powers if we vote no*.

"What are the powers?"
"Erm, we'd rather not say at the moment"


* They also promised us more powers in 1979. We ended up with 18 years of Tory rule and **** all powers.

I agree ...

I have always favoured the idea of Devo max (rather than independence) but we won't get that under a No vote. We will probably keep the status quo. Many will be happy with that.

You got your own parliament and control over spending ie; free prescriptions and free Universities and probably lots of other stuff but I can't be ****ed to research because I'm a lazy ****.

Salmond has said he's putting any talk about the Yes campaign till after the Commonwealth Games... fair play. They should be able to get on with attending and ensuring it's as successful as possible.

If everyone has to endure a 30 minute set from Simple minds or rod Stewart this evening then people will be too busy commiting suicide for there to be any possibility of it being a success.

The SNP played a fairly significant role in bringing Thatcher to power.

Aye, I know. Despite what people on here think I don't actually work for the SNP nor have I ever voted for them. Also, I think Labour were more culpable in getting Thatcher into power than anyone else.
 
The Orange Order has been given permission to hold a pro-Union rally in Edinburgh five days before the Scottish independence referendum.

Well done. I think this has only been discussed three times on this thread including the possibility of the march going ahead, the decision by the council and confirmation of the march going ahead about 10 days ago.

Again, well done <applause>
