Descripción

A wildfire near Arthur’s Seat scorched Salisbury Crags, leaving a blackened cliffside and threatening Scotland’s rarest butterfly, the Northern Brown Argus. With its caterpillars dependent on destroyed rock-rose, the colony faces severe risk. Rangers struggled to protect the habitat due to dangerous rockfall, and officials urge visitors to prevent future fires by checking forecasts, avoiding open flames, and properly disposing of litter. While some plants like gorse are resilient, the park’s fragile ecosystem depends on responsible behavior to survive.

Vikki Soloman Case Takes Tragic Turn | Edinburgh News

A tragic double tragedy has left Vikki Soloman’s family without closure: her former partner, Lee Greenan, died in prison just days after she was killed in a violent incident. Greenan, charged with her murder, was found dead in HMP Edinburgh — sparking outrage and grief as many demand answers. Police say his death was not suspicious, but MSP Alex Cole-Hamilton and social media users alike call it a devastating blow to justice. A Fatal Accident Inquiry is now underway to investigate his death, while the Procurator Fiscal reviews both cases — leaving Soloman’s children without the justice they desperately need.

Sausage Politics and Public Statues | Edinburgh News

Edinburgh artist Jamie Fitzpatrick unveils his provocative new exhibition, “Memorials to Sausage Politics,” at Edinburgh Printmakers—running until October 25—where he reimagines city statues as comic, monstrous sculptures and painted screen prints. Blending clay, foam, and rubber, Fitzpatrick exposes the absurdities of power and class through a funhouse mirror lens. This show marks a bold shift into printmaking, using bronze pigments and collage to scale up civic iconography, revealing how art and propaganda shape public memory. Backed by RSA and Henry Moore Foundation, the exhibition is hailed as a standout of the Edinburgh Art Festival, celebrating Fitzpatrick’s inventive, research-driven fusion of sculpture and print.
