Three in custody over Parliament-Paint gate

Three people have been arrested after red paint was sprayed across the front of the Scottish Parliament building in Edinburgh in protest against rising food insecurity.

This Is Rigged campaigners say a quarter of Scots have experienced food insecurity since 2023 and displayed banners reading “hunger is a political choice” and “one in four Scots” outside the building.

The group is calling on the Scottish Government to fund and implement a community food hub for every 500 households in Scotland.
