One strong woman

PLEASE READ! An excellent message from a former female SNP supporter who has recently reached out to the No campaign:

“One of the keys to a nationalist victory in September is securing a female vote. Alex Salmond cynically promoted two female ministers at the recent spring conference in an attempt to try and convince female voters that independence was also about female empowerment.

“Of course, he fails to see that he already debates two female party leaders on a weekly basis with his chief loud mouth also being female. With these facts in mind, how is independence some kind of vehicle to free women from an imagined state of male dominated servitude?

“We have had female prime ministers, females in charge of MI5, top CEOs have also been or currently are CEOs……..the list could go on – but just how will independence make opportunities any better for females?

“There is one thing women can smell a mile off – a chancer; and Alex Salmond is the biggest of all.

Wow, one strong woman who hates being patronized; I think this letter is very relevant to the desperate course Salmond and the Yes campaign are heading at this moment, both locally and nationally.
