Many thanks again to rtpscott for this:

At the end of this P&J report:

Why is the Sherriff so concerned about people from England rather than from, say, Glasgow? Might he be seeing more of the former than he’d like?

From the Inverness Courier in July 2025:

A 26-year-old Liverpool man who supplied heroin and cocaine across England and Scotland, including Inverness, Aviemore and Nairn, will be sentenced next week.

Jack Horgan, of Boundary Farm Road, who is currently serving a jail sentence, appeared by video link at Inverness Sheriff Court represented by his solicitor David Patterson, who confirmed his client would be admitting two offences of being concerned in the supply of the two Class A narcotics between March 9, 2021 and June 2, 2021.

Note that these offences took place 4 years ago.

Is this a one-off? No. See:

Why are Scotland’s MSM not reporting Highland police ‘success’ tackling County Lines drug gangs from Liverpool behind 2023 violence?

How much does it matter to the folk in Inverness? It’s an effing plague of death and despair which the BBC and STV are ignoring. See:

A clear causal connection between Liverpool drug gangs, the flood of cheap, more powerful, drugs into Scotland and our still far too high drug deaths. Why are Scotland’s media ignoring that?

‘Especially from England?’

Sheesh, you’d never hear BBC Scotland, STV, The Herald, or the Scotsman talking like that. Free speech doesn’t mean you can say bad things about the Union.

Footnote – rtp? Read then pass?
