So the referendum is underway now. Im hoping that its a Yes because it would be an amazing demonstration of people power if the majority of Scottish voters dare to defy the entire Westminster establishment, the whole mainstream media (except the Sunday Herald), the outrageously biased BBC (reputation surely tarnished beyond repair now, whatever the outcome), the bully boy banks (who were bailed out by us just a few years ago when they caused the crisis that the Tories have so gleefully exacerbated through ideological austerity) and countless businesses who have been pressurised by the government into making ridiculous threats (price rises, relocations, job cuts etc). Even if the people of Scotland pass up this extraordinary opportunity to effect real political change and take more control over their own destiny, itll still be a close run thing, because the grassroots Yes campaign have done themselves proud in the face of astronomical odds, and the No Campaign has been a pathetic fearmongering shambles from day one.
