Corralling the media behind barriers is wrong.

I reflect, and I make no causal link between this and the attacks in Edinburgh on the weekend, but we did hear that half-naked man wielding an axe shouting about ‘protecting our country’.

How can there be any meaningful improvement to services if the Government are not prepared to reflect on what went wrong in the past?

I absolutely agree. The struggle for progress and equality is never truly won. We have to win it with every generation.
