You needn't suffer from paranoia to note it, just selective myopia not to.
I'm not sure I take any offence at the use of the term. After all, the question of how what is currently "ours" (as in the UK's) should be divided if indendence goes ahead is at the very core of the debate.
Rather more open to challenge is the use of the term "air bases" in the plural. Once Leuchars closes there will only be one place worthy of that description in Scotland.
