Scottish Referendum Betting
With a change at the top, it would also be worth a cautionary check on the Independence referendum betting odds to see if there are any changes there.
Over the past 12 months, it has looked less and less likely that any referendum would take place prior to 2025, with betting odds on the event suggesting a mere 10% chance a vote would take place before that date.
