Good evening. Opponents of an independent Scotland say the "yes" | :00:09. | :00:12. | |
campaign has been dealt a "significant blow" - because of | :00:13. | :00:15. | |
comments by the president of the European Commission. Jose Manuel | :00:16. | :00:18. | |
Barroso said an application from Scotland to join the European Union | :00:19. | :00:21. | |
would need the approval of all member states, and that would be | :00:22. | :00:25. | |
difficult. The Scottish National Party dismissed his remarks, saying | :00:26. | :00:28. | |
Scots should not allow themselves to be swayed by the political agendas | :00:29. | :00:37. | |
of others. Here's Andrew Kerr. A lack of unity in the European | :00:38. | :00:42. | |
Union could be a blog today independent Scotland's membership. | :00:43. | :00:44. | |
The president of the European Commission has said that Scotland | :00:45. | :00:47. | |
would not automatically be a new member. He seemed to go further | :00:48. | :00:53. | |
today. He pointed to the possibility of other states vetoing EU | :00:54. | :00:58. | |
membership. It is a new country. I believe it is going to be extremely | :00:59. | :01:04. | |
difficult if not impossible, a new member state coming out of one of | :01:05. | :01:07. | |
our countries, getting the agreement, but having said that, it | :01:08. | :01:11. | |
is for the British people and the Scottish people, in their | :01:12. | :01:13. | |
referendum, to decide about their future. Was Manuel Barroso made | :01:14. | :01:18. | |
particular reference to the government of Spain, well-known for | :01:19. | :01:23. | |
their opposition to independence in Catalonia and the Basque country. It | :01:24. | :01:27. | |
intervention was dismissed by the Scottish Government. I think | :01:28. | :01:31. | |
President Barroso's remarks are preposterous. He has said that his | :01:32. | :01:38. | |
position is linking Scotland's position to Kosovo. Scotland has | :01:39. | :01:42. | |
been a member of the EU for 40 years. Comments were music to the | :01:43. | :01:46. | |
ears for those opposed to Scottish independence. It is an advantage of | :01:47. | :01:51. | |
the European Union to have members within it, but what Jose Manuel | :01:52. | :01:57. | |
Barroso was saying is that the negotiations that take place will be | :01:58. | :02:01. | |
anything but plain sailing. They could drag on for years. As the | :02:02. | :02:06. | |
president said, it is up to the Scottish people to decide their | :02:07. | :02:08. | |
future but his comments are fuelling that debate, as Scottish people pour | :02:09. | :02:17. | |
over what he said. A 78-year-old cyclist has died after | :02:18. | :02:21. | |
being involved in a collision with a car on the Kirkliston to South | :02:22. | :02:24. | |
Queensferry road, in Edinburgh, this morning. Police say it involved the | :02:25. | :02:29. | |
man's mountain bike and a Mercedes. At the Winter Olympics in Sochi, | :02:30. | :02:32. | |
David Murdoch's team lost their penultimate match of the round robin | :02:33. | :02:35. | |
stage at the Winter Olympics - going down 7-6 to Norway. The defeat for | :02:36. | :02:39. | |
the Team GB rink leaves them on five wins and three defeats. With four | :02:40. | :02:42. | |
teams vying for three remaining semifinal spots, they have a crucial | :02:43. | :02:45. | |
match against China tomorrow in their final group match. They art | :02:46. | :02:48. | |
area Lee good team. We ran them tight at the end. Tomorrow you are | :02:49. | :02:58. | |
playing China? Yes. We need to win everything from here on in. | :02:59. | :03:00. | |
An exhibition at Glasgow University is celebrating the work of a | :03:01. | :03:03. | |
Scottish Italian artist, who grew up in poverty in the city after his | :03:04. | :03:07. | |
family fled Mussolini's Italy to seek refuge in Scotland. The | :03:08. | :03:11. | |
playwright Harold Pinter described Antonio Pacitto's art as 'deeply | :03:12. | :03:13. | |
impressive and very important'. The show includes drawings, prints and | :03:14. | :03:16. | |
ceramics. Suzanne Allan has the story. | :03:17. | :03:22. | |
This is Antonio Pacitto on the right. Just six years old but | :03:23. | :03:27. | |
already he felt like an outsider, a refugee in a strange land. Three | :03:28. | :03:35. | |
years earlier, his family had been forced to leave Italy as socialists, | :03:36. | :03:39. | |
they were chased out by fascists. Scotland was there a safe haven. | :03:40. | :03:45. | |
This is one of his Montana more series... The upheaval affected his | :03:46. | :03:49. | |
whole life. Forever identifying with the displaced. The passion for | :03:50. | :03:55. | |
social justice, the identification with people who were homeless, who | :03:56. | :04:02. | |
were victims. Victims of injustice. That was there throughout his life. | :04:03. | :04:08. | |
As a 15-year-old, he was already influenced by Glasgow's people and | :04:09. | :04:13. | |
places. He loved the place, the people and the warmth and humanity | :04:14. | :04:20. | |
of the place and its resilience. Antonio Pacitto's career was shaped | :04:21. | :04:27. | |
by the fact he felt he had been a untimely ripped from Italy when his | :04:28. | :04:30. | |
parents were trying to escape the fascists. When he came to Glasgow, | :04:31. | :04:35. | |
what he found was a warm welcome and he felt the city shared in his | :04:36. | :04:40. | |
beliefs. In the SPL, Celtic have reaffirmed | :04:41. | :04:43. | |
their 21-point lead over Aberdeen, with a 3-0 win against St Johnstone. | :04:44. | :04:47. | |
The goals all came courtesy of Irishman Anthony Stokes - his third | :04:48. | :04:50. | |
hat trick for the club. Now Gillian's ready and waiting at | :04:51. | :04:53. | |
the weather map. A lovely day for most today, Gillian - fills you with | :04:54. | :04:56. | |
hope that spring is round the corner. | :04:57. | :04:56. | |
most today, Gillian I wish. Let's hope you make the most | :04:57. | :05:03. | |
of today. Some good spells of sunshine around today, the clear | :05:04. | :05:06. | |
skies will make for a cold night tonight. Widespread frost, risk of | :05:07. | :05:11. | |
ice on untreated surfaces, but we will lose the showers in the far | :05:12. | :05:16. | |
north. Temperatures as low as minus four Celsius in some areas. | :05:17. | :05:20. | |
Recovering slightly towards the morning as rain comes in from the | :05:21. | :05:24. | |
south-west. Tomorrow is a return to recent form, low pressure takes | :05:25. | :05:28. | |
charge once again. We will be without the very strong winds but we | :05:29. | :05:32. | |
will have a lot of cloud and rain pushing northward across the | :05:33. | :05:36. | |
country, snow for the hills but to low levels around Inverness and | :05:37. | :05:42. | |
Murray for a time in the afternoon. A cold fuel everywhere tomorrow. | :05:43. | :05:43. | |
That is the forecast. A cold fuel everywhere tomorrow. | :05:44. | :05:46. | |
That's all for now. Our late news is especially late tonight - around | :05:47. | :05:49. | |
11.20. If you're staying up to watch the BAFTAs, enjoy the show and hope | :05:50. | :05:53. | |
you can join us then. Whatever you're doing, have a very good | :05:54. | :05:54. | |
evening. Until then, have a very good | :05:55. | :06:01. | |
evening. Whilst we are talking about wet and | :06:02. | :06:20. | |
windy weather in the week ahead, we will | :06:21. | :06:21. |
