I'm English. I'm voting for Scottish independence and moving over the border. Oh god, is this history repeating itself.

No disrespect intended. Some of best friends are Scots!

The well respected Mori poll (unlike the yougov for the sun) suggests that 49% of people are undecided or will change their minds come May 6th.?? don't forget what a miserable time Britain had last lime the Tories ere in power (long time ago).

Nothing fixes a thing so intensely in memory as the wish to forget it
