Love should be at the heart of how we treat children in Scotland.
But as Alan Sinclair wrote:
"In Scotland, we tolerate children"
Toleration is unacceptable. The starting place needs to be love, care and commitment to children, and if it's not that, then we have a problem

1. Iβm pretty sceptical about representative democracy: broadly speaking, I think itβs a contradiction in terms. But if we are to have such a thing, it should look like the assistant dying bill debate in Parliament yesterday. That debate showed us what we are missing all the rest of the time. π§΅
