EXCLUSIVE: We reveal that the Labour Government has been conducting secret Scottish independence polling since Andy Burnham became PM - and now it's refusing to publish them.
It has also refused to publish the costs for the polling operation

EXCLUSIVE: An Edinburgh artist has created a new 360-degree map of Scotland designed to challenge the traditional way we look at the country and, perhaps, the way we think about Scotland itself 👇

Delighted to contribute to the centenary edition of the estimable Scots Independent with a piece in Scots toasting the paper. Love the cover design by @AndrewRBarr. Boy, was I in great company with the Oliver Brown Award in recent years!

Introducing my new 360º round map of Scotland, hand-printed onto birchwood trays ... 🧵
In a traditional map of Scotland you see the country from a southern perspective (looking south to north) but I have designed this 360º illustration so that whichever way you turn it, the drawing is always the right way up.
Each tray measures 45cm across and comes with curved edges for easy carrying. The birchwood is also FSC-certified meaning that it comes from forests that are managed sustainably.
Now available from my online shop! andrewrbarr.bigcartel.com/pr…
Next month I'll be showcasing my maps and illustrations on the walls of the Rising Tide Café in Portobello, Edinburgh!
The exhibition runs throughout the month leading up to St Andrew’s Day. 🏴
Maps, prints, and copies of the Atlas of Scotland book will also be available.
