MEGHAN Gallacher has pledged to deliver on the “5 Ps” after launching a campaign to become leader of the Scottish Conservatives – pockets, properties, parents, pensioners and protection.
It’s catchy, we’ll give her that. But it’s a real shame the party’s deputy leader seems to have neglected one other key P. Proofing.
Anyone who goes onto her website meghanforleader.poliengine.com is immediately presented with a feast of spelling and grammatical errors.
Her key slogan – Reset, Rebuild, Restore – has a typo in it in the middle of the home page (rebuld), while in detailing her experience she has said she has “served has an associate office bearer”.

Further down the page in the “about” section, Husband and Daughter are needlessly capped up yet, in describing her Indian ringneck parrot – like we needed to know – she has neglected to cap up Indian.
Also, when you are talking about several Ps Meghan, it’s Ps, not P’s. You use P's if something is belonging to a P. Savvy?
And we haven’t even got to the part where Gallacher describes herself as “grassroots campaign” in the “volunteer” section.
I don’t really remember any major marches or placards personally. Maybe an “er” on the end there Meghan?
If you do want to use this useful resource to go over your website Meghan, The Jouker would be delighted to assist, though there is a small charge.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
Callum Baird, Editor of The National
