The NO campaign is negative as it's being realistic, the SNP will say and do anything to get a yes vote and their promises of lower taxes, higher benefits, better public services and a free unicorn for all are being shown up.

When you have umpteen experts saying your figures don't add up you should take notice rather than just sticking your fingers in your ears and saying 'La La La, it'll be fine'
I appreciate all of that Derek. However, in the event that there is a yes vote then Scotland will decide what promises it fulfills and how it fulfills them if at all. The opinions of experts based on a different paradigm (ie. the current status quo) are largely irrelevant in that particular context.
