Cromarty Rising

We’ve heard a lot from our MSP’s that STS is not a devolved matter. We are not convinced of that and have broken the STS process into steps that detail whether each step is a Scottish Government or UK Government responsibility. It is a work in progress but it really does emphasis that the Scottish […]

Sorry – thought this had gone out at midnight as usual but notice we’d put the wrong time on it – sorry to all those who read at breakfast! The Gurn from Nurn has put up a number of videos from the protest the other day, interviewing some of our politicians and others – they […]

Today, no, scandal relating to the Port Authority – we’d thought we’d share the photos from the Scottish Parliament protest on Thursday, A really good result for us – we’ve engaged with a number of politicians across the party divide and look forward to working with them over the coming weeks. More on that later […]

The P&J publish a letter from an incensed Nairn resident earlier in the week – this was in response to the CFPA’s attempt to rubbish Drew Hendry’s poll of Nairn residents’ views, where the Port spokesperson tried to assert that “only 2% of the population of Nairn had expressed opposition to STS….” .

It has been brought to our attention that when the Highland Councillors returned from their break this week, they all had a letter waiting from them from the CFPA. You can read it HERE.

It is with great pleasure we can announce that 2 Highland constituency MSP’s are supporting their communities and have registered their opposition to the CFPA’s plan to transfer crude oil. So very well done to Kate Forbes MSP and Gail Ross MSP. It is absolutely fantastic that you are listening to Highland residents – this […]

Back to our response from our legal letter…….in the Intertek summary document, under the issue heading “air pollution not fully assessed” where the following comments were highlighted: pollution from vessels not appropriately assessed air pollution modelling should be be applied There were many more comments made regarding air pollution during the consultation, however it would […]

We thought we’d share what Norman Will has been saying – he’s head of office, election agent and campaign manager for Fergus Ewing MSP. We are not sure if these view’s reflect those of Mr Ewing, if they do then we are gravely disappointed by the attitude of our ELECTED representatives. They would do well […]
