    Interesting, I didn’t know a British citizen could be banned from an area of Britain that large. I know they have town centre bans for things like anti-social behaviour. I wonder what Scottish Power did, my one and only dealing with them wasn’t great.

  3. >In 2012, serial egg thief Matthew Gonshaw, from London, was banned from entering Scotland during bird breeding season between February and August.

    I’m sure the guys a prick, but surely this isn’t legal? How can one be banned from such a large part of the country? Curious

  5. Whilst it seems draconian and authoritarian, it is legal, even if he hasn’t been convicted!

    It’s a bail condition and not at all rare.
    It’s used very frequently on cases of drug supply where people from England travel to Scotland to sell drugs.

  7. Will they have to amend the sign?

    “Scotland welcomes you, except for that guy, also that known egg thief can get tae fuck too”.
