STRATHCLYDE and Glasgow Caledonian universities are among the latest organisations to have resigned from CBI Scotland over its decision to back a No vote in the independence referendum.

Skills Development Scotland (SDS), the Law Society of Scotland and Highland and Islands Enterprise have also resigned while Aberdeen's Robert Gordon University expressed disapproval of the move.

The CBI has formally registered as a supporter of Better Together and may give cash to the pro-Union campaign.

Glasgow, Aberdeen and Edinburgh universities have all resigned along with Scottish Enterprise, VisitScotland and STV.

A Strathclyde University spokeswoman said: "We have reviewed our membership of CBI Scotland and taken the decision to withdraw."
