One of the 45%; Scottish Republic please; would like to know why the British state wants to keep a 'basket case' like Scotland; tired of BBC Scotland's lies.

Jack and his ilk aren’t Unionists. There’s no such thing as ‘Unionists’ anymore. The Jacks, Baillies and Sarwars are agents for English parties. They’ll impose the will of the English establishment onto Scotland. ‘Scottish’ Labour activists aren’t yet aware what they’ve become, so blinded by their hatred of the SNP are they. Indeed the whole ‘Unionist’ political & media sector in Scotland is simply an agency for English establishment institutions. Their purpose isn’t to serve the people of Scotland, it’s to dupe us into handing back all power to London.

The Leader of the Labour Party praising Margaret Thatcher is bleak for all those hoping for real change.

It does, again, raise the question as to whether Labour in Scotland agree with their Westminster boss?

[Humza Yousaf @HumzaYousaf]

What Thatcher did to mining and industrial communities was not "entrepreneurialism", it was vandalism.

Starmer praising Thatcher is an insult to those communities in Scotland, and across the UK, who still bear the scars of her disastrous policies.

Thatcher destroyed Scotland’s key industries, sold off our pubic housing stock, gave away our national utilities in an orgy of price hiking privatisations, and siphoned off our oil riches. Norway grew wealthy as Scotland was despoiled. This is who Sir Keir lauds? No!

We have a Holyrood main and second opposition comprising branches of two English parties. We have a public service broadcaster that's similarly a branch of England's national broadcaster. Each indulges the other's worst tabloid excesses. The SNP needs a strategy to combat this.

[MSM Monitor @msm_monitor]

Not only did BBC Scotland employ a complete news blackout of the Scottish Labour 'Gaza Gag Order' resignations for three days, it also completely ignored Keir Starmer's attempt to distance himself from his own comments by denying he said what he *clearly* said.

With the Scottish Govt's Covid inquiry set to begin this week, it's also worth reminding folk that right at the start of the pandemic BBC Scotland implied the virus was no more dangerous than flu and was nothing to worry about. Here's the broadcast from March 13th, 2020.

[MSM Monitor @msm_monitor]

BBC Scotland habitually cut away from the FM's Covid briefing and headlined measures announced by Boris Johnson for England. Having created confusion it then allowed Unionists to blame the Scottish Govt. BBC Scotland behaved appallingly and should be part of the Covid inquiry.

@msm_monitor Corrupt to the core @BBCScotlandNews @BBCRadioScot

[MSM Monitor @msm_monitor]

Shanks abstained on the vote to devolve employment law to Scotland. Something Sarwar promised. Yet another Scottish Labour lickspittle career MP.

[MSM Monitor @msm_monitor]

We don't have a problem with Kaye Adams' hatred of the SNP. We *do* have a problem with her being allowed to indulge it on a publicly funded radio programme. This is politically motivated junk radio that revels in its British Nationalism.

[MSM Monitor @msm_monitor]

Someone, somewhere decreed that the SNP would not view BBC Scotland as hostile, at least publicly. This was a strategic error. It allowed an opponent to be seen as neutral by the public, thus ensuring SNPBad news narratives were never questioned by potential voters.

[MSM Monitor @msm_monitor]

This has to be tackled head-on. The man in the audience was a former Tory election candidate. Viewers were duped into believing he was an ordinary member of the public. His political past was concealed. This is happening again and again on BBC Scotland programmes.

[MSM Monitor @msm_monitor]

The Tory plant in the Debate Night audience last night reminded us of the time former Tory MSP Mary Scanlon was in the Question Time audience. She wasn't identified as a former Tory MSP and went on to attack John Swinney as did a number of unidentified Tory councillors.

[MSM Monitor @msm_monitor]

We don't see any long term strategy from Anas Sarwar. He seems obsessed with the forthcoming by-election. If Labour wins, then what? He's ditched all his policies to appease Starmer. He genuinely seems to think SNP voters will simply opt for his party ... just because.

[MSM Monitor @msm_monitor]

Brian Whittle having a mini-meltdown. Don't retweet this folks, it'll embarrass the guy.

#WhittleMeltdown

[MSM Monitor @msm_monitor]

John White starred in the Scottish Tory party political broadcast last year. How did this guy manage to be selected from the audience in a BBC Scotland TV debate without his party links being revealed? It's simply not credible the production team didn't know who he was.
