JK Rowling gives £1m to anti-independence campaign for Scotland
Ms Rowling, who lives in Edinburgh, said she was against Scottish independence even though she was “no fan of the current Westminster government”.
“My hesitance at embracing independence has nothing to do with lack of belief in Scotland’s remarkable people or its achievements,” she wrote in a post on her website
“The simple truth is that Scotland is subject to the same twenty-first century pressures as the rest of the world. It must compete in the same global markets, defend itself from the same threats and navigate what still feels like a fragile economic recovery.
“The more I listen to the Yes campaign, the more I worry about its minimisation and even denial of risks.”
