BETTER Together leader Alistair Darling was not at yesterday’s debate on devolution.

The Labour former Chancellor, who led the No campaign to victory four weeks ago, joined a list of high-profile absentees.

Prime Minister David Cameron was slammed for snubbing the debate, and there was no sign either of the two other men who made The Vow, Labour leader Ed Miliband and Nick Clegg of the Lib Dems.

Darling’s office said he was unavailable but refused to say why.

Shortly after the referendum vote, Darling warned the Westminster leaders to keep their promises to Scotland. He said: “Anyone who welches on that will pay a very high price for years to come.”
