Covid Communication Breakdown


The latest figures for new Covid cases in Scotland are still stubbornly high with a 7% positivity rate.

"First and foremost, before we all go on a mad seagull killing frenzy. In the U.K it is against the law to kill seagulls or interfere with their nests under the countryside and wildlife act.
