“Galloway, the perennial land of 'No', no to independence, no national park, no radical politics, was once an autonomous state with a small mercantile Empire and a foreign policy independent of Scotland's.

What happened to it I'm not sure, but in many ways now it is a peripheral area, settled by rich COVID refugees from the south, stripped of viable industries and still dominated by feudal landlords who squat in their castles and ensure their workforce vote Tory, or maybe now Reform, because was not Galloway, in spite of its rich cultural and social heritage, the headquarters of prewar Scottish fascism?”
