~ NO/Better Together & the Media (non-scottish) seem to think things have been violent in Scotland during the referendum, which is insulting, perplexing and journalists who made comparisons to the antics in Ireland during the height of the IRA, are you mental??? HOWEVER the Scottish Police Federation (which campaigns on issues relating to the police ppl of Police Scotland)has released a statement to the media saying that #indyref: As I have previously stated the referendum debate has been robust but overwhelmingly good natured. Scotland’s citizens are overwhelmingly law abiding and tolerant and it is preposterous to imply that by placing a cross in a box, our citizens will suddenly abandon the personal virtues and values held dear to them all. At this time it is more important than ever that individuals be they politicians, journalists or whoever should carefully consider their words, maintain level heads and act with respect. Respect is not demonstrated by suggesting a minority of mindless idiots are representative of anything. One of the many joys of this campaign has been how it has awakened political awareness across almost every single section of society. The success enjoyed by the many should not be sullied by the actions of the few. Rest of statement can be found by clicking on the link, so you can read it for yourselves... #indyref #voteYES
