Alba party leader KENNY MacASKILL makes some suggestions on how to save our pubs and reduce irresponsible drinking
After years of austerity and denial under a new Reform UK council, a failing Send service was pushed into the spotlight by staff, unions and parents — culminating in a £1.3m funding boost and a 50% increase in front-line workers. MARTIN PORTER explains
THE killing of 60 unarmed protestors in Gaza last week, at exactly the same time that Ivanka Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu presided over the glitzy opening of the US embassy in Jerusalem, was a contrast too bloody and grotesque to ignore.
The laughing, giggling, self-congratulating crowd at the embassy could not have been more different from the blood-covered demonstrators ferrying the dead and wounded from the battlefield.
The Israeli government, emboldened by the support it has received from Donald Trump, gave orders to shoot at the protests, which the army did — not only killing the 60 but, as on previous occasions, wounding very large numbers often shot in the limbs in order to immobilise them.
