In regards to the rapid binning of medical files in the Scottish Newspapers & on Scottish media platforms at the moment, is abhorrent to read. I asked about this in 2023 in regards to my son's case . The quest for transparency will continue in Scotland #Stonewalling

This is why we need an urgent review of the scale of child sexual exploitation in Scotland. It’s been hidden in plain sight for far too long. @AConstance23
EXCLUSIVE: Police are investigating abuse and child sexual exploitation as part of a major probe into care services in the Capital. One youth worker sacked, at least eight more facing multiple allegations. Some continue to work with young people. https://t.co/N91f5sGWm8
