Letter: Unionist dinosaurs have had their day
If Mr Reid is the best British Bulldog in the unionist kennel then Alex Salmond is correct when he predicts that independence is "inevitable".
John Reid belongs to a past generation of unionist politicians who conspired to keep Scotland in the union for their own self-glorification. The First Minister recently described Michael Forsyth as a political "dinosaur", he was right; Reid, Rifkind and Forsyth have had their day. It's now time for the people of Scotland to throw off the shackles of 19th and 20th-century unionism and embrace their right to build a new Scotland.
