Bizarre - not an especially impressive unicorn either: a pink one would have been nicer.

I quite liked it - the unicorn, that is.

There was a Pink Unicorn there, you just couldn't see her.

Also, this comment was intriguing

this ISNT "great symbolism". The unicorn is chained in our heraldry & flags because its a dangerous wild animal, the chains mean we have control over it. The chained unicorn represents Scotlands power over danger. You have symbolically freed a dangerous killer into the population

I'm strongly tempted to do some research to find out if he is right...

... it seems he is broadly correct, but the "we" who have control are the Scottish monarchs, so cutting the chains is republican symbolism.
