Honestly how many folk in the Scotsman approved this??! You’d think they’d have some basic knowledge about the country’s geography? Though clearly not if this is the front page of Saturdays magazine….

🤦‍♀️ had to zoom in. Sure an island’s an island right? Orkney? Guernsey? Sicily? Hebridean.

Or perhaps there has been an invasion/ takeover by the Hebredians that I wasn’t aware of? This is maybe a subtle way of announcing it so as not to invoke panic?

They need to brush up on their geography. Last week they had Stranraer in the Borders.

I may be cynical, but would be surprised if he even lives in Scotland.

I’m trying to figure out the route the second journalist took that meant she drove south through the borders and ended up in Stranraer. Perhaps south from central London then up the motorway?

Selkiesarereal · 17/10/2021 17:27

Oh dearie me, not good for a major newspaper. Next they will be asking why it isn’t in Gaelic!
