Jack McConnel along with messers Blair and Brown have convinced me to vote SNP next week.Why because every interview they give includes Nat Bashing!Danny McIntosh, Beith,North Ayrshire
Shame on Jack McConnell and Tony Blair. How dare they talk down Scotland. All this nonsense of we what we would lose. Lies and bluster from two very scared politicians. Ironically both of Scots birth.Let's give the SNP the only genuine "Scottish" Party a chance.Bill Beattie, Carluke
In spite of media bias against the SNP there appears to be a growing opinion in Scotland that there is a need to disrupt the status quo. A vote for the SNP is the only way to do that. The after you 'George' nature of the unionist parties and their constant message that the Scots are too stupid to be responsible for their own future would have all the Race Relation Industry in the UK up in arms if it was Kenya and not Scotland. Blair and Brown's uttering's increasingly carry the stench of fear: one for his 'legacy' the other because he may well go down as the Scottish PM that brought about the end of the Union.Peter Thomson, Kirkcudbright
