Healing needed
The picture on yesterday’s front page symbolises all that is distasteful about the Yes campaign’s aggression.
It has become apparent for a long time that independence activists have inveigled themselves in a worrying way into all sorts of places.
I gather, for example, when they held a meeting in my own town of Troon there were some who were bussed in to make the appropriate noise and to quieten anyone who dared offer any contrary view. Little wonder when we were treated to a contemptuous Mr Salmond smirking his way through the last “debate”on TV.
His was a studied and rehearsed effort to dismiss through volume any arguments which he cannot answer through hard fact.
He has single-handedly divided our country. When we vote No next month, there will be many people needing to be healed.
