Pot, meet kettle

I note that in the report about the appointment of Callum Mccaig as a government adviser, the spokesman for Nicola Sturgeon says that “the Scotland Office exists simply as apologists for whatever the Tory government inflicts on Scotland”. Since the advisers to the Scottish Government simply act as cheerleaders for Ms Sturgeon’s independence ambitions and the “Yes” campaign, is this not a case of the pot calling the kettle black?
