Before, we always happily accepted the convention that elderly, less able and families with small children were asked to come forward first.

The #Newsweek article also says that "Her husband, Damien Bates, a former journalist who now works as a lobbyist and public affairs executive, also spoke and had nothing but support for Trump". Bates was editor of the #Aberdeen newspapers, the Press and Journal, and the Evening Express, which campaigned extensively for the hugely controversial #Balmedie golf development, including a front page Evening Express story calling councillors who voted against "You traitors" https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evening_Express_(Scotland)

#Staysure are a travel insurance company you might want to avoid. The Staysure #PGA Seniors Championship which has become the first big tournament to play at the #Trump course in Aberdeenshire. Sarah Malone of Trump International, says "We have always lived with politics, prejudice, and media coverage... Trump is a great leader, he is also a formidable opponent. He has overcome seemingly impossible odds and we are confident he will do that again"/...
