They are liars! James Cooke lied about the Scottish NHS. Sarah Smith lied several times. Glen Campbell as polity Editor is responsible for the lies, the misinformation and the omissions that BBC Scotland issue everyday. They are a Westminster tool against Independence. Totally biased liars!

The UK is nowhere near where it should be. Independence will improve things for Scotland by removing the far right as the major political force. However, the notion that the malevolent idiocracy, from across the pond, can 'save Britain' is ludicrous. The US needs to be saved from itself! Urgently...

Anas Sarwar,& Scottish branch office of UK Labour, are entirely opposed to devolution. When they respond to ScotGov complaints about Westminster policies not working for Scotland, their automatic ingrained response is not how to help Scotland but how to blame Holyrood for Westminster's failings.

In Scotland, we're working hard to undo the damage being inflicted by Labour in Westminster.

Rarely ever watch the BBC (other than Eastenders which I've watched from episode 1 (sorry, but somebody has to🙄) and defintely not BBC Radio Scotland - they are so biaised and propogantist and worse than the worst.

The irony is surely not lost on people that democracy, human rights and the rule of law (the core of the ECHR) were cornerstones of conservative (small c) thinking.

Badenoch's party is rejecting conservative values.

Cut benefits, cut minimum wage, raise retirement age, means test pensions, get rid of the NHS.

Why are you voting for Farage?

All this nonsense about taking away Andy’s medals is a ruse to generate sympathy for him. I personally dont care about his medals or titles, not do i think do the victims. What is required is a full investigation and persecution.

Scotland is heading out of the UK. Scotland will stand fairer and stronger as an independent nation.
Our country will win back.
75 years ago, the ECHR was signed after the horrors of the war.

Today, Nigel Farage and many Westminster politicians want to tear up the laws that protect our basic human rights.

Our rights are not Westminster’s to take away. We will stand firmly against that.

Boris Johnson says the idea that criticism of the BBC is being organised by the right is ‘complete and utter bollocks’, which makes me think there might be something in it.

The BBC must stand up to Trump's $1 billion lawsuit - or risk legitimising the president's false narrative of what really happened on January 6

#BBCLies.
In 2014 Nick Robinson of the BBC edited a clip of Alex Salmond, claiming that he "Didn't answer a question." Salmond had actually given a long and detailed answer. They edited the clip to make it appear that he hadn't. Any suggestion that BBC journalists are impartial is ridiculous. 1/
