ANTI-INDEPENDENCE campaign group Scotland In Union have a special message for the nation this Valentine's Day.
The organisation shared a video on Twitter with some awkward rhyming that takes aim at the Yes Movement, all in the name of love...
The poem reads:
Roses are red / Violets are blue / We love the UK / We don't want Indyref2
Valentine’s Day, what a great reason for letting people know how much we love the UK 🇬🇧 and don't want indyref2.

Warm wishes for a happy Valentine’s Day. We hope you celebrate it by doing all the things you 💕 love.

The video also calls for people to share why they "love the UK". We're sure they will hear exactly what people think of the UK very shortly.
Twitter users were quick to ask why the campaign group were using Valentine's Day to take a dig at 45% of the population, rather than showing a little love toward Scotland instead.

Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
