Spring in step

I was on the Island of Bute this morning and visited the "pop up" shop that the local YES campaign had set up for the day in Guildford Square in Rothesay.

When I got there they were just getting ready but there was a definite spring in the step of a big group of independence campaigners from a variety of political backgrounds.

They were keen to tell as many people as they could that the last few days have proved their point. Choosing independence is the only way to get away from negative bullying, scare mongering and a state that is prepared to threaten its own citizens.
