1638660500979347457 | @MonicaLennon7 @lorralou @NicolaSturgeon @NickyAACampbell @longlostfamily I am not convinced apologies by people that were not responsible are helpful. Just my view. An acknowledgement of the wrong done is warranted, but it's easy to apologise for something you weren't to blame for. | 0 |
