No, he's not....
Baron Mackie was elevated to the Lords as a political Lord, as he was the youngest of the three sons (Maitland, John, & George) of Maitland Mackie, each of whom has had several offspring.
So in reality, Alan Rusbridger is married to someone who has a share in a family business and lands, none of which will change whether or not Scotland votes for independence, unless the new Scottish parliament is intending to disenfranchise / disinherit anyone married to someone not Scots-born....
As has been said earlier, not sure what the relevance is....
