‘You couldna mak it up’

I have racked my brains as to why Scotland’s thin blue line should have to squander some of their limited resources in order to protect the Foula residents from the potentially horrific use of a ‘wirm aeten’ air rifle (Fine for possessing air rifle; SN, 26/10/2017).

 The only conclusion I can come to is it must be some sort of expensive PR stunt to help the squads who have been unable to think of an act for the forthcoming guising season.

My God, you couldna mak it up.
