So, not long to go now!
Mr Cameron gave a lovely speech the other day beseeching most of you to try and convince us to vote no.
Personally i never thought i'd consider voting yes. I have English parents, 75% of my family are English, but i was born, raised and lived in Scotland my whole life. I feel 100% Scottish.
But gradually, i've begun to question my lack of questioning, my automatic instinct was - No way! But i never really thought deeply about it. And besides i always assumed we'd never actually vote yes, as a nation, anyway. To be honest i'm wavering now, totally on the fence, i have no idea how i'll vote come September, if anything i'm now edging towards independence.
I'm not really concerned whether we'll be better off, who the PM/President/Whatever will be, who we're getting rid of down South. Because all that is either total guess work, or subject to change anyway. We might be better off, we might not, it's not something that we have total control over anyway. It's a decision for the unforseeable long-term.
I'll make my choice based on what i feel, my emotions, not what i think will or might happen, or what anyone else thinks might happen. Maybe the wrong approach, but come the decision time i think it's the only thing i'll be sure about.
I wasn't really going to bother with this thread, because i never really believed that the outcome was in doubt. But i've changed my mind, a lot (i mean a lot) of people i know had the same initial reaction as me, but their feelings have followed a similar path. I think i lot of people are wavering and that's shown in the latest polls.
I'm sure plenty of you are totally apathetic or want rid of us, and some of you want to keep us together, i'm just curious to canvas opinion on here.
I believe it's going to be a lot closer than people think.
