Just to be clear on the Daily Record, Darling is guest editor today, Salmond is guest editor tomorrow, it means nothing.

To address an earlier point  the Record was traditionally left and the Sun obviously right, nowadays the only difference is what appears on page 3, they are both rags. For what it is worth one the Scottish Suns main journos has a piece on how he has moved from a No to a Yes, there have been rumours up here for the last few days that the Sun is preparing to come out and back Yes.

They may be rags but these publications usually hold the key to the balance of power in these elections.  Slightly worrying i agree but it is the reality we live in.

Scottish sun has normally back the winners of elections up here in the last few days before the election

they switch from snp to labour and also back the yes campaign for the devolution would be a big coup for who ever they come out in favour of

I don't disagree with that which is why it's interesting that the Sun appears to be softening towards Yes, they do love to back a winner.

Leckie is only the start.  There was a big yes contingent out in Buchanan St today including Alex Salmond and Nicola Sturgeon.  I have met both on a few occasions over the last 18 months and I have to say, today was the most upbeat I have seen them.  Sturgeon in particular has a spring in her step and she once again, imo owned Labour last night in the BBC debate.  Just like the night before on ITV when they YES side were run away winners. 

I am still very confident that we will get there.  #ItsBrokeLetsFixIt

Wow.  One of how many?

Incidently they never denounced it, it was done firstly by an individual and then picked up by Wings Over Scotland.

Govan is hardly SNP heartland, it took Nicola Sturgeon a very long time to get elected there.  But it was due to sheer persistence and hardwork.  Labour are finished.

The weak response from SNP voters got worse when a pensioner refused to even discuss with Lamont how she would be voting on the 18th.


quite right too my vote is between me and the ballot box as I was brought up to act

pensioner was 65% likely to be a no voter anyway
