I might have to start getting the English members here to send me food parcels.
Crisps, sweets, chocolate and some cakes.

Porridge is on the 'naughty list' which has caused outrage because porridge is a staple of Scottish folks diet.
Plus is not fattening.
I assume this doesn't include reduced to sell to prevent wastage - most shops have a policy of throwing away food that goes past its sell by date. It is not a special "offer" but a reflection that the food items are close to their sell by date.

I am perfectly aware about shops and their policy on food items that are close to their sell buy date.
I live in Scotland not Outer Mongolia.

I don't think that's been decided yet.
It won't reduce the obesity epidemic anyway, the minimum price on alcohol the SNP introduced has seen death rates increase not decrease.

There is talk of anonymity for child victims of murder.
Anyone reporting on a murder that involved a child under eighteen could be jailed for two years.
So technically, there would have been a press blackout on the Dunblane Massacre other than saying a teacher had been killed and two other teachers injured.

Is this in Scotland Vita? I haven't heard anything as ridiculous as this for a while.
Do you have a link?

Aye it's in Scotland Syl.
Some victims families are in favour of a ban but i don't think it's a very good idea.
If a child is murdered, identifying the child helps the public come forward with information.
Just saying 'A five year old was found murdered in Dundee' would be no use.
Naming Child victims could lead to unscrupulous journalism as well as the social media crowd taunting and making life hell for the family of the child victim including for siblings.

When children were killed after the Manchester bombing, they were named in the media, it gave people the chance to mourn them, and it helped the bereaved families....same with Dunblaine and other school shootings and tragedies.
Maybe if it's a single child murder, and the perpetrator was known and caught, the parents should have the opportunity to say they want it kept private, otherwise I think it could hinder not help an investigation.

I think it would hinder an investigation as well, Syl.
maybe remove the details once there has been a conviction but initially identifying the child could make the difference to the perpetrator being caught or getting away with it.
Sturgeon will be giving evidence later today at the Covid inquiry.

Well the First Minister was whinging Scotland was too white for his liking.
He'd probably get on well with Abbott.
