We revealed this week that McGill's, the 'largest independent bus firm in the UK', posted that the earnings rise was partly down to acquisitions. James and Sandy Easdale.

(Image: PA) At times like these the dogmatic nature of politics must really frustrate people in business. While Sir Keir Starmer sticks to his Government's red lines on Europe – meaning there will be no return to the single market, no re-joining the customs union and no freedom of movement under his watch – the UK's economic prospects will continue to be constrained. This includes in Scotland, which of course voted resoundingly to remain in the European Union in the referendum of 2016, and has been living with the consequences since. But how long can the current state of affairs continue? Starmer has so far resisted calls from the Scottish Government to introduce a "Scottish visa" to help the country deal with the labour shortages it faces, but the issue is simply not going away.

(Image: Newsquest) Whelks, mussels and white sugar-coated doughnuts might well be what first come to mind when you picture food from The Barras Market in Glasgow. None of the above is wrong, with the Loch Fyne Shellfish Bar on London Road celebrating 65 years in business and Danny's Donuts still firing up their fryers every weekend. But elsewhere, thanks to a team who have invested time and effort into curating a line-up of street food vendors unlike any other, The Barras has slowly but surely evolved into one of the city's most exciting foodie destinations. As part of our Barras Reborn series, The Herald sat down with market manager Chris Butler to discuss the influx of independent culinary talent now based in the East End and how this contributes to the shifting identity of a 104-year-old cultural landmark.

Powys student's Aries sculpture made from farm machinery
A SCULPTURE of a ram's head – made from steel rods, recycled from old farm machinery by a young Powys arts student – has been unveiled to mark the 180th anniversary of the Royal Agricultural University (RAU). Seventeen-year-old Harlan Beales, who is currently studying for an extended diploma in art, design and creative practice at Hereford College of Arts, designed the sculpture, which has been named 'Aries', in tandem with former RAU student Will Carr, before fabricating it by himself. Aries was recently unveiled by RAU vice chancellor, professor Peter McCaffery, at a special lunch held at the Cirencester-based University which was founded in 1845 as the first agricultural college in the English-speaking world. Harlan, from Hay-on-Wye, said: 'It has been amazing for me to have been involved with this. 'I've made smaller pieces before but this is the first large scale sculpture I've made. 'I'm excited that it will be at the RAU forever. My aunt lives in Cirencester so I can visit the sculpture whenever I come to see her.' He added: 'Will and I worked together on the design; he was able to make 3D projections and I made two paper models to get the scale right. 'I used Will's workshop, getting guidance from Will and his fabricator at key points during the build. 'It is made from 6mm steel rods which Will had on his farm. Our initial plan was to make it using old bits of farm machinery and plough parts, but it looked so beautiful when we'd just welded the rods that we decided to leave it as it was.' Will, who previously studied civil and environmental engineering at Nottingham University, joined the RAU in 2015 to study agriculture, before taking on his family's 200-hectare mixed, arable and beef farm in the village of Weobley, near Hereford. Alongside running the farm, Will has made a successful sculpture business, employing two people, and has sold sculptures across the world, including to the United States and Australia, and public sculptures across the UK. In 2015 he made a barley ears sculpture for the RAU's 170th anniversary which now stands overlooking the university's Bathurst Lawn. He said: 'I felt very honoured to be asked to make another piece for the RAU and it was great to be able to work alongside Harlan; we worked really well as a team. 'The joined metal bars of Aries symbolise the interconnected mesh of human brains coming together, very (much) like at this university, where information is shared making a joint neural network.' RAU vice-chancellor Mr McCaffery said: 'As we celebrate our 180th anniversary we ae immensely proud of the contribution our 17,000+ alumni have made as leaders, entrepreneurs and innovators to agriculture and the land-based sector. 'The Aries sculpture is a fitting tribute to the creativity, ingenuity and commitment to sustainability that characterises our students today.' Originally established in 1845 as the Royal Agricultural College, the first agricultural college in the English-speaking world and with just 25 students, the RAU gained university status in 2013. The university now has around 1,100 students at its Cirencester campus as well as more than 3,000 studying worldwide with its many international partners.
