The Scottish Independence 'No' camp faced a fierce mauling on Twitter this morning after it's latest campaign spectacularly backfired.
Better Together's latest campaign video, called 'The Woman Who Made Up Her Mind, rapidly earned it's very own hashtag - #PatronisingBTLady - which has been trending across the UK Wednesday.
After it aired on the BBC and STV the ad sparked outrage for it's "sexist" approach to women, with many querying if the video is actually a parody of a 1950s infomercial.
The advert was a bid to win the support of undecided women voters and in just two minutes and forty seconds the 'busy mother' dismisses an independent Scotland as "one big gamble," that has "not been thought through."
Better Together urges women to vote No not only for "the love of our country" but for "the love of our families".
