Ban the Scottish sun newspaper in Scotland

On the 12th of August a train derailed traveling from Glasgow to Aberdeenshire 3 people were sadly killed once again the Scottish branch of the sun newspaper when sensationalist distasteful heartless headlines with a photo of the wreckage reads

The death express .

Why is this important?

on the 19th of April, 1989, the people of Liverpool had barely had a chance to bury their dead. Four days after the Hillsborough disaster – the worst sporting disaster in British history, in which 96 people were killed and countless others were left injured and traumatised – the country's biggest newspaper ran a front page claiming, among other accusations, that Liverpool fans had "picked pockets of victims", "urinated on brave cops" and "beat up PCs giving the kiss of life". The allegations, citing comments made by South Yorkshire Police and a Tory MP, were provided by a Sheffield news agency.

We don't not accept tabloid newspapers glorifying death especially when it's now Scotland it's time to stand up and get them out.
