Bad sports

The report on the legacy from the 2014 Glasgow Games (Scotsman, 4 April) makes disappointing reading when you consider the £540 millon sporting event has achieved very little in changing physical activity for Scottish people.

I was impressed by the clever comments made by SNP Sports Minister Aileen Campbell in describing this bad news with political “superspin” as having a lasting impact on Scotland.

Back to the drawing board for the SNP to find a plan that works for Scottish sport and how to tackle obesity, which is now a major growing problem with Scottish children. DENNIS FORBES GRATTAN Mugiemoss Road, Bucksburn
