If you’d like, I can narrow this to a specific topic (transport, council policies, culture/festivals, safety) or pull the very latest headlines from a particular outlet (BBC Scotland, STV, Edinburgh Evening News). I can also provide a brief digest of today’s top stories with direct links.
Would you prefer a focused briefing on one topic or a terse daily digest with sources?
