British PM heads to Scotland hoping to boost 'No' vote
British Prime Minister David Cameron on Monday makes his last visit to Scotland ahead of this week's independence referendum, hoping to boost the "No" vote, with polls predicting a very tight race.

The "Yes" and "No" camps are racing to win over undecided voters ahead of the historic poll on Scottish independence on Thursday, with top bands playing a gig urging a vote for leaving Britain.

Meanwhile, Queen Elizabeth II reportedly made her first comment on the referendum.

British media said the 88-year-old monarch told an onlooker after attending church near her Balmoral estate in the Scottish Highlands on Sunday: "Well, I hope people will think very carefully about the future."

As Scotland enters the most decisive week in its recent political history, opinion polls suggest the outcome of Thursday's referendum will be extremely close.

An Opinium survey for Sunday's Observer newspaper put the "No" to independence camp at 47.7 percent and "Yes" at 42.3 percent, with 10 percent not voting or not sure if they would.
