Racist behind Saltires campaign in Glasgow called for refugees to be 'gassed' Kieran Logan, 27, co-runs the Tartan Team campaign which has seen hundreds of Scotland flags raised on lamp posts across the city.

The saltire represents welcome and community. Anger at cuts in communities is understandable; but they are the fault of ministers, not migrants.

SNP handling of Flamingo Land appeal 'appears unlawful' as scrutiny mounts The Scottish Government is facing questions over its conduct in the ongoing appeal over controversial plans to build a holiday resort in Loch Lomond.

I don't say this lightly but I'm increasingly concerned that the Scottish Government's handling of the Flamingo Land planning appeal could be unlawful.

The National Park Authority's lawyers have called it 'high unorthodox'.

#Gladiator2… not sure what’s more believable. Denzel Washington’s American accent and bright white veneers.

Or sharks in the Colosseum.

Or the son from White Lotus S1 as co-emperor.

The whole thing is like a fever dream.

Wee bit of personal news.

I've officially moved to the Sunday Mail as Chief Reporter.

Excited for a new challenge but I've also had a blast covering the Environment brief for two and a half years at the Daily Record.

To everyone who has helped me with stories at the Record, please keep in touch!

End of an era for the Scottish Greens, with Patrick Harvie standing down as co-leader. Under party rules he will now need to hand back the party's collection of waistcoats & will need to sleep on a lower branch in the Scottish Green party's tree, potentially leaving him at greater risk of predation

Free bus pass in Scotland risks becoming just a 'bit of plastic' as routes drop Scottish Labour warned the SNP Government was not moving fast enough to allow councils to bring bus services back under public control.

More than 1,400 bus routes across Scotland have been slashed by private operators since the SNP came to power in 2007.

190 were lost in the last year alone.

Trump's second term is going to be the most catastrophic world event of our lifetimes. It will take decades for humanity to recover from it. If we ever do.

Who owns Scotland? Meet some of the 400 toffs who own half the country Some super-rich landowners have estates which have passed down through generations - but other elites from around the world have also been getting in on the act.

Who are these folk gobbling up the Scottish countryside? From Dukes and landed gentry to Danish billionaires and oil sheikhs, here's a wee profile of some of the more notable examples. www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/scottis...

Half of Scotland will remain playground for super-rich 'due to weak land reform' EXCLUSIVE: Scottish Labour MSP Mercedes Villalba hits out at 'watered down' SNP legislation which she says fails to get tough on mega-wealthy landowners.

Branding the Scottish Government’s Land Reform Bill a disappointment, she said it will do nothing to prevent continued 'land-grabs' by billionaires in areas like the Highlands.

Half of Scotland's private land is owned by just 400 people - crazy statistic
