Letโ€™s compare BBC Scotland News V BbC Wales. Oh Scotland is all about ferries while Wales tells us about the undermining of Devolution by Labour.
Fact BBC Scotland has an agenda and is hiding the true stories.

With a leaked Labour government memo revealing Starmer's plans to override the devolved governments and impose is will on Scotland and Wales even in devolved matters, devolution has run out of road. It's independence or incorporation into a unitary UK.

It appears that devolution was an event after all, and not a process.

What the end of Alba means for Mayโ€™s election and the broader independence movement Well thatโ€™s it. The Alba party has gone and will not be contesting the Holyrood election in May, or indeed any elections in the future. Unlike some, I am not gloating about the partyโ€™s โ€ฆ

My latest blog piece, some personal musings on what the demise of the Alba party means for the Scottish election in May and the broader independence movement.

Reform UK - we should stop all refugees and asylum seekers coming to the UK.

Also Reform UK - we should bomb Iran as part of Trump's illegal war and create thousands of refugees fleeing the destruction caused by the UK military.

Right wing press
Trans person commits violent crime - trans people are violent criminals & a threat to women and children.

Migrant commits violent crime - Migrants are violent criminals & a threat to women and children.

White man commits violent crime - this is about the actions of one individual.

I came out as gay in 1982 as the aids epidemic hit. The way trans people are being demonised now is the exact same bigoted playbook which was used against gay men in the 1980s. It was a terrible time, my first lover died, but we came out the other side stronger as a community. Don't lose hope.

Reform councillor Graham Eardley has been suspended for behaving so aggressively towards a female volunteer that security had to escort him out. Thatโ€™s at least 63 Reform councillors gone in ten months โ€“ nearly one in ten!

I seem to have missed Sarwars interviews about his Scottish Labour scandals:-
Sean Morton
Pam Duncan-Glancy
Colin Smyth
David Graham
Foysol Choudhury
Joani Reid
Mandelson
Matt Doyle
I thought we had an impartial state TV broadcaster that would highlight these stories?

Kelly Given: SNP could do so much more to be a beacon for a progressive Scotland I WAS thrilled to see the most recent Ipsos poll sinking Reform UK โ€™s Holyrood hopes into a measly fourth place

It starts with independence. Vote SNP1 Green2 in Holyrood May 26.

The Scottish government CANNOT STOP Americans from flying from Scottish airports it's a RESERVED matter for those who are not aware. Had we independence we could cut them off. Look to ukgov with your ire

Labourโ€™s tax on the North Sea is hammering Scottish jobs, and it must be urgently scrapped.

A personal milestone and yet more good polling news Iโ€™m going to start on a personal note. Almost eight years after we got married and over ten years that we have been together, my husband has finally become a British, or should I say Scottishโ€ฆ

My latest blog piece, some good personal news thanks in part to vindictive right wing Britnat trolls who unwittingly took the bait, more good polling news for May's Holyrood election, & a shout out to @indyvoices.bsky.social who is quoted in the piece.

Likewise - Scotland remains economically shackled to a declining UK.

Teachers vote goes against strike action โ€“ leaders and media disappointed they canโ€™t blame SNP so will waste their member fees by having another vote Yesterday BBC Scotland and the teachers union leaders were willing on the vote for a teachersโ€™ strike ,then in the early afternoon today, they saw this: Workload Ballot Falls Foul of Soon-to-โ€ฆ

As BBC Scotland lie that EIS members had already voted 'overwhelmingly' to strike, the truth - Teachers vote goes against strike action - leaders and media disappointed they can't blame SNP so will waste their member fees by having another vote talkingupscotlandtwo.com/2026/01/16/t...

The Daily 'Talking Up Scotland'...

US State makes the case for Scotlandโ€™s nuclear-free renewables strategy unanswerable.

Nuclear in Scotland? No thank you.
