With regards your story about the family of Ciaran Williamson being denied Legal Aid - so this is justice in the United Kingdom?

A young boy of eight is killed by a falling gravestone, they apply for Legal Aid and are refused.

Let's take a look at the people in the past who have received Legal Aid - criminals, murders, sex offenders and so on.

This family needs to know what happened and must be granted Legal Aid.

Was this not what the Legal Aid system was set up for, to assist people through no fault of their own who cannot afford to pay the cost of lawyers?

So come on all you legal eagles out there - stand up for this family, as this decision will bring shame on your profession.

As no doubt you will realise I do not have any legal training but what I do have is a knowledge of what is right and what is wrong, and this is wrong.

We must support this family.

I read the story about the pensioner who was made to walk home from hospital in her nightie.

This is only one story of many of our Scottish Government NHS. Just about every senior citizen has a similar tale to tell.

I have been on the same medication for more than 20 years for my blood and have now been told that I can no longer have it.

Hospitals are closing down all over and what is left is a waste of space and not fit for purpose.

Glasgow City Council is to hand its IT services to a private company.

Any form of private company means only one thing, and that's profit - no care, no responsibility, nothing but greed and profit.

If the council is doing less every year do we still need councillors?
