This morning, @WeAreSanctuary brutally tore down these beautiful 133 year-old sandstone cupolas on James Sellars' original 1888 ward pavilion at the Victoria Infirmary. A flagrant and unnecessary act of architectural vandalism. As if they haven't debased their reputation enough.

We're pleased to hear that all police officers in Scotland will now carry life-saving opioid overdose reversal drug Naloxone. This is an important step that will save many lives.
