[edit] Dunblane controversy
Lambie's Scottish Sunday Express ran a story criticising the behaviour of the survivors of the Dunblane massacre.[1]
Following complaints made to the PCC about the Express' abuse of privacy and an online campaign, Lambie printed an apology.[2]
However the PCC said "the breach of the code was so serious that no apology could remedy it." [3]
