Has the Queen made a Freudian slip of the tounge?

There has understandably been much speculation about what the Queen said after church on Sunday in Scotland to a well wisher in the crowd "think very carefully about the future before voting". If that's not a clear declaration of - don't be daft and vote 'Yes' - then I don't know what is? Some constitutional anoraks will suggest she is getting in to the fray and its not her role. I totally disagree if she cannot say something that is so momentous for her four nations - what's the point of her Maj? I for one think the Scots would be nuts to vote Yes. They will get Devo-Max that's like 'having your cake and eating it' - will the canny Scot throw that out? After the No vote they will still be part of a lager union with more economic stability and clout in the EU, World Trade Organisation (WTO) and other major places of influence - for example the Security Council, the Commonwealth, IMF and World Bank. If its a protest vote against the Conservative Party then vote Labour next May and ensure a Labour victory and get only the second Jew Ed Miliband to be prime minster. The other chap was Disraeli when Queen Victoria was her Maj.
