Why the Glasgow versus Edinburgh feud is exactly what Scotland doesn't need (opens the original)
Read excerpt
As a born and bred Weegie exiled in the apparently cold east, I afforded myself a chuckle at my fellow columnist Kevin McKenna’s interview with Glasgow architect and author Neil Baxter and his claim that the Scottish Government is hopelessly biased in favour of Edinburgh. It is not that I disagree with his complaint that the neglect and desecration of Glasgow’s mediaeval core is a national disgrace, quite the opposite, but I can only presume Baxter missed the recent spat over the Scottish Govern
Edinburgh Labour and SNP clash as by-election results reshape council politics (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Having laid the groundwork for their own defenestration as Scotland’s dominant political force, it’s hardly surprising that Labour’s relationship with the SNP can be like two rival Bully XLs. Then again, with little difference in philosophy except over independence, neither should it be a shock when they find ways to work together. But like divorcing spouses, what was once a happy marriage can easily descend into bitterness when one feels betrayed by the other. And so to the City of Edinburgh Co

Find, save and share Public Notices that affect you. The Public Notice Portal carries statutory public notices published in local newspapers and is the fastest and most effective way of finding out what is happening in YOUR neighbourhood.

Read excerpt
Call it natural teething trouble, unfortunate miscalculation or avoidable incompetence, one way or another it hasn't taken long for Edinburgh's much-heralded tourist tax, or visitor levy to give it its Sunday name, to run into difficulties. From the experience of operators to the impact on the Festivals, the prize of £50 million a year in revenue has seemingly blinded the council to legitimate concerns which could and should have been thrashed out before the scheme went live a month ago. A speci
Scotland is holding Edinburgh back - and that has to stop (opens the original)
Read excerpt
After a couple of weeks away from the column grindstone, it was something of a relief to come back to a relatively balmy Edinburgh compared to the searing heat of the normally breezy Italian Lakes, and like most travellers from the capital for the first time I had a new comparison to make. The local tourist tax is a barely noticeable €2 a night compared to Edinburgh’s five per cent. Capped at five nights may be, but a £200-a-night room here, hardly the Ritz in August, will come with an extra £50
