'My aunt was killed on a Scots army base in 1942 and I've solved her murder' A new book could shed light on the murder of an Irish woman on a Scottish army base during World War Two.

This is a story that fascinated me when I first heard about it, and speaking to Liam it is clear his family were let down by the Scottish legal system after his aunt's death. 83 years later, he believes he knows who murdered her.

Plans to create home of GAA in Scotland outlined with centre for Irish culture The organisation responsible for promoting Gaelic Games in Scotland is hoping to redevelop ground to have a home of its own.

The GAA only owns one piece of land outside of Ireland and it's a derelict field in Scotland that has been ravaged by Japanese knotweed. Scotland GAA has big plans for its future.

Thanks Mark, glad you enjoyed it and unfortunately the sectarianism element really hasn’t gone away as much as we’d all like to think

Why St Patrick's Day should be celebrated and what it means to Scotland's Irish There are people who I work with who won’t be aware that I spent the first 18 years of my life living in a small fishing village on the west coast…

Enjoyed this by @markmcdougall.bsky.social. As one of Glasgow's many sons of Irish descent (for lack of a better phrase beyond "Irish Catholic"), it always struck me how little celebration we had of that heritage.

The reason is centuries of sectarianism. But we are, or should be, well past that.
