The Sunday Post, The Press and Journal, and The Courier are joining forces in the Fresh Start campaign to help save Scotland's high streets. In our launch article, we visited Ayr, which has an unwelcome reputation as the empty shops capital of Scotland. eu1.hubs.ly/H0vMr150

Residents in Ayr, Scotland's empty shop capital, call for Fresh Start

Previously bustling Ayr town ­centre now has a down-at-heel look to it – and an unwelcome reputation as the empty shops capital of Scotland.

Grok is claiming a video from the central fire in Glasgow, Scotland is actually Tel Aviv. Stop putting any faith into this hallucinatory software.

This couldn’t be further from the truth. Here’s why: thecourier.co.uk/fp/opinion/…

DAVID CLEGG: Why Pete Wishart is wrong about our Perth immigration 'secrecy' story

"I've no interest in a social media spat with the MP so I’m setting it out here in the same terms I have to Mr Wishart privately," writes David Clegg, editor of The Courier.

Awful headline on the front page of the Courier. They are inflaming community tensions by trying to suggest that criminal activity by asylum seekers is being 'withheld'. P&K Council are simply following Home Office protocols & the police tell us no incidents have been reported

Incredibly lucky that no one has been injured by this. thecourier.co.uk/fp/news/533…

There's a 'story' doing the rounds today about life in Lochee and Dundee, which I won't give any oxygen to. Instead, hear from real people who live and work in Lochee, from the journalists who spend every day covering issues in their community. thecourier.co.uk/fp/news/532…

How have Lochee residents reacted to 'knife' incident that put neighbourhood in spotlight?

"Lochee deserves to be heard on its own terms, not through the lens of outsiders who don’t know our streets."
