Scotland’s schools have seen nearly 700 knife-related crimes in five years, sparking alarm as the Liberal Democrats accuse the government of failing to curb youth knife violence. Despite a slight drop in seized weapons last year, the numbers remain troubling—especially after recent fatal stabbings and high-profile cases involving teens. Critics blame slashed youth programs, arguing that lack of support and direction fuels violence, while the government insists schools are safe and claims it’s working with partners to tackle the issue through policing and targeted initiatives.

Aberdeen’s £20 million Castlegate makeover is set to transform the city into a café haven—but for local café owner Soran Xurmale, the construction chaos is crushing his dream. Just a year after opening his art and coffee space, ongoing work has blocked access, slashed foot traffic, and forced him to cut breakfast service and sell his car and camera gear to pay rent. Despite his deep love for Aberdeen and his determination to keep going, Soran fears his gallery may close before the revitalization even begins. He’s reached out to the council for help—so far, no luck. But with a heart for local artists and community, he’s refusing to quit.
