British Labour Party leader Ed Miliband attacked what he branded the “ugly” side to the nationalists as he was swamped in chaotic scenes by Yes vote protesters while canvassing in Edinburgh.

SNP first minister Alex Salmond hit back, dismissing an offer by the main Westminster parties of home rule for Scotland as a “last-minute desperate offer of nothing”.
