I've seen Labour been cowed by the Tory/UKIP tactics and fail to stand up for the idea of "better together" but not really actually join in on it. Brown is campaigning for Labour and aiming his criticism at the SNP but he has every right to do that. As anyone has. The difference is the likes of Theresa May etc have been deliberately stirring up resentment against Scots and suggesting that SNP influence on any gvt would not be legitimate. That is the idea I am criticising.

For instance one of the recent polls had the result very close with the Tories only two seats in front of Labour with the SNP on about 53. So any reasonable person who claimed to believe in the union must concede that a combined Labour/SNP block would be legitimate in that scenario. It is not a two party system and the members from across the UK have the same rights etc. Of course there are other parties to consider too but that was an easy comparison.
