Nick Robinson, BBC political editor, exposes Cameron

Ex chair of the young Tories, now BBC political editor, Nick Robinson, told us all yesterday that it was PM Cameron that had recently mobilised supermarket chiefs to claim the prices would rise in an independent Scotland. This is a small item in the absolute barrage now underway as Britain's rulers try to weaken the resolve of Scotland's pro-independence voters. 

The barrage appears to be having some effect. The politics of fear often work initially - look at post 9/11 USA. But Scotland is at the end of a two year debate. It has politicised a whole nation. The quality of the discussion is higher than at any time anywhere in Britain since the centres of the miner's strike in 1984/5 and before that, 1945/7, across the whole of the British population as it struggled to create a new country, free of fascism and the insecurities of the 1930s. The seed is well planted. Millions in Scotland have a good idea of the conniving, self-seeking and cynical character of the current British political establishment. And they have renewed hope; for a better life, for a better country and they want to do something that really means something. Like all huge offensives, the current onslaught is meant to terrorise, to paralyse, to reverse the advances that the Scots have made. But there will be a fight. The people of Scotland will resist. Whatever the outcome - a movement has been built.  These are moments at the pinnacles of real human history. 

So Robertson's revelation simply confirms what millions already know. If you want and need change you will be fought to the end by those who hold power; you will need to face the fears they try to create; you will need to assert your right to your own destiny.
