10.11.2025 14:19 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0BBC bosses resign over Trump bias. Why did no one resign when a BBC reporter faked an answer to his question of Alex Salmond? A question which was answered fully for over 7 minutes but the reporter said there was no answer. BBC bias is ok if it undermines Scottish Independence?

Those of us in Scotland have had to put up with hugely biased output from BBC & Radio Scotland for years. Their anti SNP reporting is obvious (see some examples below), but apparently, it takes bias to someone in a foreign country for anyone to care. #bbc

In Scotland, we have elected a government that looks after and benefits the people, not corporate backers or hostile states who give exorbitant sums of money to favour their interests.
Fight for Proportional Representation; it removes the power of the few and distributes it to the many.

All of it is lies.
In Scotland, there are no longer Tory values, or Labour values, there is simply 'Unionism at all costs', even if it means outing yourself as a racist.

Ireland will be reunited in my lifetime, and Iโm an auld boy.
Everything about Westminster is toxic. The Union will be cast aside as the Empire was. Those days are well and truly gone, and the world is a better place for that,
The late Janey Godley, outside Trump's golf course in South Ayrshire, holds a sign reading "Trump is a Cunt". In the foreground, there's a police officer. As a Cornish-born laddie with Romani heritage, I struggle with Janey Godley. On one hand, she was an incredibly warm woman who gave me a free interview on the air because her daughter clammed up. On the other hand, on podcasts, she's made jokes about my people during the Holocaust with such bad taste that it might make Jimmy Carr blush. But today isn't that day to discuss this. She spent the last 7 years of her life trying to make the world a better place, and her voiceovers kept us all sane during the pandemic. So thank you, Janey Godley, you are missed.
It's been a year, and she was always right about this. We miss you, Janey Godley.

Many in the UK still think the Royal Family's raison d'etre is generating tourist dollars for the economy.
Bullshit! The monarchy is a societal control tool - to manipulate public opinion, deflect govt policy, and enable and reinforce the notion of first and second-class citizenship.
Denmark's economy is double the size of Scotland's so they do amazing stuff like this. At some point I guess Scots will realise that having Westminster run our economy for us has been a complete disaster..
