Tuhia he haere tonu mo tenei whitianga - Ko Lamont he tangata rongonui i roto i te Better Together Campaign, te nekehanga torangapu i hangaia hei pupuri i a Scotland hei waahanga o te United Kingdom whai muri i te panui a te SNP mo te pooti pooti mo te mana motuhake o Scotland
i te tau 2014. I korero ia i tana whakahe ki te mana motuhake o Scotland, ma te whakamahi i tetahi korero matua i te huihuinga a UK Labour 2013 i Brighton ki te whakapae i te SNP mo te whakatipu riri i waenga i a Scotland me te toenga o te UK, me te whakaahua i te iwi hei "mate kua pa ki nga iwi maha me te kino nui". E tautoko ana a Lamont i te nui ake o ngā mana tuku iho ki te Pāremata o Kōti, ā, i whakatūria e ia he Kōmihana ki te titiro me pēhea te whakatutuki i tēnei.
