Talk:Ann Gloag

Involvement with "Keep the clause"
Brian Souter's involvement with "Keep the clause" is well reported, but could you cite Ann Gloag's involvement other than hearsay e.g. other than ScotsGay Magazine January 2000 or Spectrezine. Brian Souter is mentioned in the wikiarticle, I have cleared this up. As she is a living person, her religious beliefs are not relevant unless in reference to her upbringing or she has a prominent role within that organisation. Also, "At the turn of the Millenium" besides spelling error, implies that these events were in 2001 when the poll was conducted in 2000. → friedfish 17:09, 19 October 2006 (UTC)


 * This is a biographical article. Of course her religious stance is important, what's wrong with that? Just about every other major biographical article has some information on someone's upbringing, family religion, current belief etc, this is hardly unusual. "Turn of the Millenium" refers to around that time - 2000 qualifies even with the 2001 definition. Apart from some pedants, few people saw 2001 as the Millenium. They're usually the type of people that going on about how monkeys aren't apes, and dolphins aren't fish - all well and good, and true, but a good way of clearing a room... --MacRusgail 16:16, 23 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Hi, thank you for you input → friedfish 16:39, 23 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Are you anti-gay or something? Personally I couldn't give a toss (no pun intended, and "fur cough", isn't a pun in my accent. We pronounce the "r"). What's with the religious thing anyway? You still haven't answered that.

Congratulations for what you have achieved in West Africa. I know you can well afford it and so can many others who chose not to, but you do not have to do it but you chose to this. God bless you. Jim Orrock —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.192.54.80 (talk) 21:33, 15 March 2009 (UTC)

Pronunciation
Does anyone know how to pronounce Gloag? I have heard it said Glow-agg, but rhyming with vogue seems more euphonious. Afterbrunel (talk) 18:56, 17 December 2021 (UTC)

Billionaire?
Why is she described a billionaire, then two sentences later it is stated that she and her brother were (jointly, presumably?) worth £730 million two or three years ago? £730m is not a billion, especially when the sum is attributed jointly to two parties. 2A01:4C8:1404:20DA:246C:E336:FE8A:FD69 (talk) 00:42, 21 January 2023 (UTC)
