Lib Dem ex-MP John Barrett to vote Yes

Scottish independence is the way ahead, according to a former Liberal Democrat MP who today revealed he had decided to break with his party’s line and vote Yes.

John Barrett, who represented Edinburgh West, made clear he was “no fan” of the SNP and vowed to remain a Lib Dem, but he said independence offered Scotland an opportunity for change which would be “forever lost with a No vote”.

Mr Barrett is the first serving or former parliamentarian among the Scottish Lib Dems to break ranks on the issue.
