The RAAC scandal! What is the concrete crisis, and what if it was you and your family? Have a watch and PLEASE sign the petition before time runs out tomorrow. (Link attached) It’s not just Aberdeen - this is Scotland and possibly UK wide. #trappedbyraac

My dad died Christmas 2024. Loyal to the SNP for his whole life. For his 70th we got him a letter from Sturgeon thanking him for his devotion (he stood as a candidate as a teen, & was out canvassing in his wheelchair as a pensioner), and he was still recalling stories of

Thanks Michael. Appreciate this incredibly.
I am clear that only with the relentless coverage from @LLBruce @pressjournal did we get a deal for those affected by #RAAC. The constant focus on individuals and their families forced @scotgov to press @AberdeenCC to change position. Congratulations! 🍻 pressandjournal.co.uk/fp/new…

And my incredible P&J colleagues won best coverage of a live event for Aberdeen’s Cup final coverage, and our @courier_dundee fam took home the biggest prizes of the night, Team of the year (1st and 2nd place) and newsbrands of the year. What a night for @DC_Thomson 🔥

FYI, you're talking to a ghost. I died at 6.35am when my husband returned from the big Tesco with today's @PrivateEyeNews, and I then discovered I made it onto the Paul Foot Award shortlist!!! #Paulfootaward

Chuffed beyond words to be included in this year’s @PrivateEyeNews Paul Foot Award long list for our @pressjournal Trapped by RAAC campaign and investigative work. To say I’m in good company is an understatement. private-eye.co.uk/paul-foot-…

A political EXCLUSIVE from me today: the SNP will today announce its plans - at the very least - to pilot bowel cancer screening for younger people. Energy Sec Gillian Martin has been campaigning behind the scenes since her beautiful sister was diagnosed - too late.
