Dundee Conservative Friends of the Union launch

Last night Alex Johnstone MSP launched our local Conservative Friends of the Union campaign in the Dalhousie building at Dundee University.
A packed room heard Alex talk about the many compelling reasons for Scotland remaining in the United Kingdom, which is the most successful political union the world has ever seen. He spoke about the advantages that Scotland gains from membership of the UK and the enormous contributions that Scots have made to it and why renewing that partnership is the key to a safer, fairer and more prosperous Scotland in future.
The battle to keep Britain together will not be won by politicians but by ordinary people here in Dundee and across the country.  Many Scots who are proud to be both Scottish and British have pledged their support for our campaign.
