    In Conversation with Finlay Carson MSP
    Jun 26 2026
    Recently re-elected MSP Finlay Carson is Galloway's Gazetteer's first big-name interview. He discusses what brought him in to politics and why he is a Conservative. He explains why he believes there needs to be a pause in the development of on-shore windfarms and outlines his hopes for Galloway. And he recalls too when his mother heard he was planning to stand for the local council she told him he was a 'bloody idiot'.

  • The Tragedy of Hastings Pier

    The Tragedy of Hastings Pier
    Jun 24 2026

    The history of Hastings Pier is a chequered one. But no one could have anticipated the mess that it would become when it was triumphantly reopened a decade ago after a £14m rebuild following a devastating fire in October 2010. Today, at the height of summer it is devoid of visitors and only three businesses operate on the pier - it wasn't mean to be like this.
