No public hearings, anomolies in key files, a highly unorthodox new process, and getting the same official who approved Flamingo Land to mark his own homework.

The Scottish Government must ensure the Loch Lomond appeal is conducted fairly and with full transparency.

Flamingo Land is opposed by the National Trust for Scotland, the Woodland Trust, the Ramblers, the Scottish Environment Protection Agency, and Loch Lomond & the Trossachs National Park.

It's not too late to stop it and save Loch Lomond.

🚨BREAKING

The Scottish Government has announced it's cancelling Scotland's new National Park in Galloway.

This is devastating news for the local community and nature, slamming the door on the new investment and powers it would have brought.

A betrayal of people and planet.

FT | 2-1 | It was late but it was great. Conor Sammon converted Magnus Mackenzie's cross to draw Alloa level after Stirton's early goal. Luke Rankin forced home the winner six minutes from time to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat and restore Alloa to the playoff places before the final game.
