NFT: SCOTLAND thread

NoPeanutz : 9/18/2014 10:29 am

Today is the referendum in Scotland.

Quote:

Voters will answer "Yes" or "No" to the referendum question: "Should Scotland be an independent country?"

Polls have been open since this morning, will close 5pm NYC time. Decision to be announced 1:30-2:30am NYC time (if my math is correct).

News media are prohibited by British law from discussing results until after all voting has closed.

So what do we think, BBI? Who will win?

Any voters posting here today? Any otherwise British BBIers with an opinion one way or another?

Personally, I hope they go for it, economic "consequences" be damned. National borders are about more than efficiency, IMO.

The price of my Scotch isn't going up. Scotch independence has been retained.
