Many of us have not forgotten Bill Munro, founder of Borrheid Travel, for his part in the NO campaign, in 2014. See this from BBC Scotland in March 2014:
The founder of Barrhead Travel has told his staff that a “Yes” vote in Scotland’s independence referendum would be “a disaster”. Bill Munro sent a memo to staff about what he saw as the dangers of independence and accused the SNP of misleading voters.

Now we can reveal that NO remains a deeply ingrained tendency in Munro’s former business. From Money Saving Expert yesterday::
Travel abroad from the UK has partially opened up again, after being essentially banned for over 100 days. During that time millions of people have been owed refunds for holidays they couldn’t go on. Today MoneySavingExpert reveals the results of its latest survey, with 77,000 responses, showing a stark divide in the way different travel firms treat their customers. The survey ran between 30 June and 6 July and had 77,101 individual responses about travel firms. The aim was to find out both how people felt about their ‘refund experience’ and whether they actually got one.
Barrhead Travel came 60th out of 70, just above Virgin Travel:
Hays Travel who recently saved Thomas Cook branches in Scotland came out 6th with a score of +64.

Is indeed confused and so would any upon receipt of such ridiculous instructions from his and our colonial master in chief of State propaganda to rubbish the facts and Data re.this virus particularly so as it
Public UK.Gov data that with the utmost of clarity clearly demonstrates that Scotland in ALL areas are completely out performing England by a mile
Such is the usual result of when your foe is on the back foot and on the run
The instructions from the top to the leaders upon the field only expose as to the actual state of confusion they are actually in and enables their pursuers
A clearer picture of their weakness and possible likely movements
Know thy Foe
And knowing them
Always yields bountiful fruit

We too have been trying to get to speak with someone at Barhead since March. We are owed 3 grand for a cruise that did not happen. I’m considering going to the press to air my disgust at their behaviour and their appalling lack of customer service. Their is really no excuse apart from GREED .

This article is a false narrative. Barrhead Travel has been owned by an American company, Travel Leads, since Feb 2018 so the fact that people have not received a refund is nothing to do with Bill Munro or his views on independence. It is a disgraceful situation and I hope that people get their money back from the company responsible. If not, ABTA can help.
