Scottish independence will put a million jobs at risk, according to Better Together.
Campaign chairman Alistair Darling will launch a new poster campaign in Greenock tomorrow featuring Scots who are saying "no thanks" to independence.
"A million Scottish jobs rely on trade within the UK," he is expected to say.
"That is a million opportunities for families in Scotland because we are in the UK and I want to create more opportunities. That is what is best for Scottish jobs, for families and for funding our schools and hospitals.
"I want to change Scotland by taking us forward and exploiting the opportunities and strength of the UK. I don't want Scotland to change by going backwards and separating ourselves from such a rich source of jobs.
"One million jobs rely on our links with the UK. I want a million more - not to put the million we currently have at risk.
"This is a risk we don't need to take. We can have the best of both worlds for Scotland within the UK. That means more powers for Scotland without taking on all the risks of independence. That's why we should say no thanks to independence on September 18."
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
