Andrew Scott is a contemporary artist renowned for his bold "frame-breaking" creations, where characters in his paintings seem to penetrate through glass.

Through this unique creative approach, Scott explores themes of freedom, solitude, and resilience.

Draw your own conclusions, but Donald Trump is not behaving like a leader who expects democratic accountability for himself or his party next year or in 2028.

We celebrated St Andrew’s Day in St Patrick’s Cathedral last night. An absolute privilege to be in such an iconic place sharing our culture and bonds. 💚

Did you know Wester Hailes was supposed to have a lake? In its original 1965/66 plan, the scheme was also supposed to be linked together by a central avenue lined with shops and other amenities. The plan referred to it as a ‘20th Century Princes Street’ with housing areas branching off like leaves
