Mr Swinney’s comments were made earlier this week when he reacted to Bank Governor Mark Carney’s warning that a currency union threatened Britain’s financial stability.

The finance secretary said: “The Scottish Government has had technical discussions with the Bank of England regarding our proposal for a currency union.”

The Bank, however, took issue with Mr Swinney’s version of events and took the rare step of issuing an official response.

Its statement said: “To be clear, consistent with its statement in December 2012, the Bank of England has not entered into discussions with representatives of the Scottish Government about proposals for future monetary arrangements in Scotland.”

The statement went on to say that discussions with the Scottish Government had been limited to answering “technical questions”.

Scottish Government says they've had technical discussion and the BoE says they've answered technical questions and that's lying?

This is getting desperate from project fear.

So you think the Bank of England breaking with 500 years of political neutrality to lie to the nation is funny?

I think it's a f**king disgrace but not really surprising the way the establishment are behaving during the run up to the referendum.

Typical input from a No voter. A man so demonstrably stupid he makes ER's comments look like the work of Bertrand Russell.

You've taken that too far.

Nev is assuredly dimwitted but the witless pish ER has sharted all over this thread is little more than the random rantings of the lonely middle-aged.

You know, the sort of people who write angry letters into The Sun.
