Daylight Is The Best Disinfectant

Who are the faceless, nameless trans activists behind the decision of the National Library of Scotland to remove 'The Women Who Wouldn't Wheesht' from the library's centenary exhibition? 

I think the public is entitled to know how these individuals are allowed to use bully-boy, blackmailing tactics to influence the delivery of important public services 

Here's my freedom of information (FoI) request to Scotland's National Librarian, Amina Shah.

Dear Amina Shah

FOISA Request

I would like to make the following request under the Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act 2002.

1) Please confirm the number of NLS employees who are members of the internal LGBTQI+ staff network?

2) Please confirm the process by which these individuals are selected?

3) Please confirm how the LGBTQI+ network was consulted over the decision to  include and subsequently withdraw 'The Women Who Would't Wheehst' from the NLS centenary exhibition?

4) Please confirm how the wider body of NLS staff were consulted over the centenary exhibition, ie were non-LGBTQI+ staff given the same or a similar opportunity to make their voices heard?  

I look forward to hearing from you and would be grateful if you could respond to me by email at the following address - markirvine@compuserve.com

Kind regards


Mark Irvine

The River Cottage chef has a some imaginative ideas for adding seagulls to the national diet - including a recipe for Kentucky Fried Seagull - would you believe. Here's what HFW has to say on the subjecy -  I think I'll contact Hugh - and ask if he'll join the TAPAS campaign. "Vermin with wings? Chicken of the sea? Or just an opportunity missed?" "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. Some Councils are allowed to cull them however, and usually do this by either poisoning or shooting them. How to catch your seagull. Remember this is against the law in the U.K. I don't want the Men in Blue knocking at the door because someone said that Foodimum told them it was okay to catch and eat seagulls. It isn...
