:00:42.:00:46.

claimed that independence is closer than ever. On a visit to a brewery

for a no vote. I have always said that we will win this campaign. We

:01:10.:01:15.

are getting great reaction in the streets. I was in Dundee and I must

:01:16.:01:19.

have met thousands of people in the centre of that great city. There was

:01:20.:01:25.

a wonderful carnival activity. There was a meeting in Perth last night.

people who were previously no voters are moving to yes. People who work

can. Let's look at the prospectus for social justice. What I the SNP

:02:46.:02:49.

spending. They are not matching is on the 50p tax rate. Not only energy

:02:56.:03:01.

:03:02.:03:08.

vote no and help elect a Labour government.
