Such is the inbuilt distrust of anything emanating from Westminster/London/England north of the border, I don't think the BT campaign could do anything without being criticised by someone or other.
IMHO it's time for the Scots to put up or shut up. Everyone I talk to just wants this interminable name calling to be over and done with so make your mind up guys. Go your own way or stay in but let that be an end to it because the vast majority of people watching from the sidelines seem to be thoroughly peed off with all this. In fact given all the veiled and not so veiled 'threats' being issued by the Yes people to all and sundry, you could just find you've lost yourselves a great many friends irrespective of the result and that really would be sad. This whole thing has opened a can of worms and created a great deal of resentment which won't be easily forgotten no matter what else happens. For those who set this train in motion I hope it was worth it.

So in reality, Alan Rusbridger is married to someone who has a share in a family business and lands, none of which will change whether or not Scotland votes for independence, unless the new Scottish parliament is intending to disenfranchise / disinherit anyone married to someone not Scots-born....
As has been said earlier, not sure what the relevance is....

Typical biased nonsense from the BT side as usual...
