Within the headline spin there is a powerful rebuttal. Allan Burnett, the former Association of Chief Police Officers in Scotland co-ordinator of counter terrorism, said: Sir David is wrong and this is another example of Project Fear at its worst - trying to politicise issues of security and anti-terrorism in this way is the height of irresponsibility. It frankly beggars belief that the No campaign feels able to lecture anyone on security issues - with the long list of blunders we have witnessed by Westminster, including - of course - the disastrous and illegal war in Iraq , which made the whole world a much more dangerous place. That is one reason why so many senior ex-police officers in Scotland such as myself, James Fraser, former chairman of the Scottish Police Federation, and David Ross former vice chair, are now supporting independence, and of course Dame Mariot Leslie, the recently retired UK ambassador to Nato, is also rejecting this scaremongering and voting Yes. This foolish intervention by the No campaign reeks of panic.
