Mutterings about a second independence referendum Monday’s Courier has all the General Election latest

The fact that lots of people voted for the SNP has caused something of a stooshie.

Already there have been mutterings about a second independence referendum.

Most of that chat was fuelled by a certain new MP, the previously unheralded, little known and not much talked about (ahem) Alex Salmond.

He has now thrown another grenade into the Westminster mix by suggesting the Scotland Office should be abolished.

He’s certainly starting his new career with a bang…

We have all the very latest.

In other news, Sunday saw the return of the Etape Caledonia to Perthshire.

Thousands of cyclists defied the weather to complete the gruelling circuit.

Full reports and pictures in Monday’s Courier.

We also have some very interesting T in the Park developments and its good news for the organisers…

Throw in haggis making championships and the remarkable tale of a young bone collector making it really rather big in bone collecting circles and I am sure you will agree it is shaping up to be a Monday to remember.
