By Blare MacDugall, our guest writer on Utter Mendacity (with a minor in shaggy dogs).

Today sees the launch of the most heinous piece of propaganda yet to be produced by that factory of lies, the Yes Scotlandshire campaign.

A new website hosting a short film has been released by shifty separatists. This film features a small dog, Duggy Dug, who appears to speak on behalf of the nasty nonconformist nationalists, repeating many of their typical calumnies on the subject of the UK's oil industry.

I can reveal today that the entire film is no more than a falsehood - the dog does not speak at all, but is cunningly made to appear as if it does. The words attributed to Duggy are actually spoken by arch-dissident and Holywood icon, Brian Cox. And even he has chosen to use a soubriquet normally attributed to the much more famous (and frankly prettier) Mancunian physicist.

The wee dug in question has obviously been maltreated by it's treacherous tormentors, fed (no doubt) on a diet of sausage rolls and forced to ape human behaviour in pursuit of an unreachable nationalist nirvana. Surely this cruelty should be reported to the SSPCA. [Don't you mean RSPCA - SSPCA sounds a bit too separatist - Ed]

Normally I would advise all right thinking subjects to avoid this type of nonsense as it can only pollute your minds with its vile dissimulation. However, on this occasion, I would urge you all to visit the site and watch the film, simply to inform yourself of the lengths to which these creatures are prepared to go in spreading their bile.

I would not, of course, advise you to donate any of your hard-earned JSA to their cause, as this will only encourage them to produce another three of these awful videos, probably countering other aspects of our positive case for remaining in our beloved union. These people need to be despised and ridiculed, not encouraged in their barking mad Braveheartery.

At the very least, I urge you to contact the authorities and see if we can at least find this blameless animal a good Unionist home where it can be protected from this astucious apostacy.

Click here to visit their dreadful site and prepare to be apalled.
