Scotland's Missing Forests 120k views in a week. Wonder if Scotgov gets the message. Barren-looking land, even overgrazed & burnt grouse moors, can support natural woodland & biodiversity. This is the story of two pals who went where politicians fear to tread www.youtube.com/watch?v=MuTV...

Scotland's richest 2% now have more wealth than half the population combined.

At today's #FMQs we asked the First Minister why shooting estates owned by billionaires still pay no business rates.

We’re losing millions of pounds that could go towards our schools, libraries, and hospitals.
End tax breaks for the super rich. Tax shooting estates. Scottish Greens.

Stoats ? Vermin . Crows ? Vermin . Birds of prey ?! Still vermin !

The driven grouse shooting industry's obsession with vermin is just one reason why it should end .
