An exuberant crowd attempted to woo First Minister Alex Salmond with a Valentine’s Day card reading, “Roses are white, thistles are blue, we believe in equal marriage and we hope the Scottish Government will too,” carried by campaigners at the Love Equally March in Edinburgh on Tuesday 14 February.
