In 2022, the flower-bedecked, lakeside town of Gérardmer in the Vosges mountains was rattled by a spate of vandalism attacks. An environmental saboteur targeted outdoor jacuzzis at holiday rentals and second homes amid rising tensions between tourists and local residents during a water shortage emergency. Since then, there has been growing discontent in holiday destinations in France as locals contend with the soaring number of second homes. Across Europe, other tourist hotspots are also feeling the strain; in Cornwall, Wales, Barcelona and Lisbon, residents are being priced out. Over 90% of p...

Scotland's cultural development body is reassessing its decision to allocate nearly €100,000 (£85,000) of taxpayer funds for an arts initiative featuring explicit, "hardcore" sex performances. The project titled "Rein", directed by Leonie Rae Gasson, is described as "fantastical 45 minute, multi-screen, moving image installation". It offers participants €320 (£270) per day for engaging in "non-simulated" sex, including "hardcore" acts. The casting call specifies that actors must be over 18, with a preference for those with previous sex work experience, particularly in "porn contexts." Audience...

For the past year, Fiona McArthur has been carefully studying every film that comes out in theatres – jotting down notes as she watched each of them in the dark art deco cinema in Campbeltown, Scotland. “I looked like the pretentious person in the cinema with my notebook and pen,” she joked.

Last February, McArthur and her artisanal chocolate shop Fetcha Chocolates were approached to make chocolates for the Ac...

"I was the first minister when the pandemic struck," she said in Edinburgh. "There's a large part of me wi...

Washington (AFP) - A Libyan man accused of making the bomb that destroyed a Pan Am flight over Scotland in 1988, killing 270 people, has been taken into US custody, authorities said on Sunday.

He had previously been held in Libya for alleged involvement in a 1986 attack on a Berlin nightclub. The US Justice Department confirmed in a statement that Masud was in American custody, following an announcement by Scottish prosecutors, without sayin...
