Letters / Quoting their master

Shetland News @shetnews

‘”Centuries of history hang in the balance and a question mark looms over the future of the United Kingdom because of the nationalists’ referendum”.’ So said David Cameron in February; so say Maurice Mullay and two pals in the Shetland News yesterday (‘Leap into the unknown’, SN 6/5/14).

I can understand why Maurice and Theo Smith quote their master in his own words; I am less clear why Geordie Jacobson of Shetland Labour Party is doing so. Give us a clue, Geordie.
