(19,948 posts)10. Funny headline, but the "Scottish Sun" is still The Sun. They just stick Scottish on it and add a
few local stories. They similarly dump their rag in Ireland as the "Irish Sun". It's been a prime driver of horseshit to the great unwashed by Rupert Murdoch, and the world would be a better place if it didn't exist. It's a curious thing that there has been a 30 year boycott of the Sun in Liverpool, after their disgusting attempt to blame the Hillsborough disaster on "drunken Liverpool fans", and that city firmly voted to Remain in the EU.
