Arran opinion
For anyone who has lived and worked on Arran, even for the shortest of time, there is a clear understanding that island life comes with its own set of unique challenges and circumstances, most of which we can all agree with, and which are partly the reason why so many people aspire to live and work here. It would not be unfair to say that, especially judging from our letters page, Arran residents hold strong opinions on these matters and, through their valuable contributions towards public discourse, are uncowed in airing them.
Especially so with the arrival of the Scottish cabinet ministers and first minister’s visit earlier this week, where public discussion was invited at the meeting at Arran High School.
