As a strong supporter of public service broadcasting, I want to be able to defend the BBC. But the decision to take @GaryLineker off air is indefensible. It is undermining free speech in the face of political pressure - & it does always seem to be rightwing pressure it caves to
How to be impartial at the BBC:
NOT IMPARTIAL
❌Gary Lineker criticising the Government
❌David Attenborough condemning environmental destruction
IMPARTIAL
✅Andrew Neil sharing hard-right views on Brexit and climate change
✅Alan Sugar telling people to vote for Boris Johnson
@ScotTories Absolute chaos amongst Tory MPs today, ending in near fights in Westminster, but it's still SNP bad? You must think the Scottish electorate are fools! You certainly treat us as such!
@Jimfair11@scoobygal52@RealStephenKerr So just for me to get this right, the positive case for being in this "union" is that we are already in it? Therefore for we should just judge it on its current performance? That's going to work out well for you, isn't it 🤔?
@RealStephenKerr What's your thoughts on the latest (daily & sometimes hourly) nonsense going on with the unelected Tory government in Westminster? A puppet PM forcing through policies against their own mandate?
@garvieg@rainie1410@Douglas4Moray If you believe that then you must also believe that 55% 8 years ago can't be claimed as that the Scottish people had spoken?
@AnasSarwar Election after election has shown a majority supporting a mandate for a referendum. The same election after election has seen the Scottish people reject both Labour and Tory.
