Show this clip to family and friends. They'll be shocked at the level of anti-Scottish propaganda peddled by BBC Scotland. They'll see the station in a different light.

Englands claim that Scots should stock up on food and water in case of attack just doesn't stand scrutiny.
They want you to be afraid and unwilling to demand your independence.
The truth is however, Scotland is far safer as an independent State than a region of "Greater England".

Just how could @JohnHealey_MP visit St Fergus ( as seen here) a short time ago, and meet with workers, surely knowing full well that he was about to shaft them in his budget?
It doesn't matter which party is in power at Westminster. Scots shafted again.

@theSNP Add to this the Grangemouth story, the failure to raise funding by AMTE Power, that hydrogen truck company in Glasgow and a bunch of other projects then I simply don't understand why people can't see Scotland is being progressively weakened industrially & economically.

BBC BritNat never ran an article on the new figures yesterday showing a fall in alcohol deaths in Scotland. Instead the station has headlined the small rise in deaths amongst women. This is the second top story on the BBC BritNat website.

Last week a well known Labour supporting business man called @JohnSwinney a "dictator", today Tory business woman thinks @StephenFlynnSNP should act like King Canute & hold back the waves: teapaw.org/JohnnyDundee/status/21… The Brits in Scotland are becoming more hysterical by the day.
STV News reporter Vanessa Taafft should take full responsibility for not informing viewers that shop owner Toni Dawson's attempts to politicise Storm damage is down to her being an ex-Tory Party candidate for the area. Doing the Tories dirty work, Vanessa? teapaw.org/msm_monitor/status/211…

Labour's House Jock MPs are pushing the 'Scotland needs nuclear reactors' message relentlessly. BBC Scotland is slowly coming on board. What neither will admit is that new nuclear reactors will push energy bills higher. Scotland of course doesn't need new nuclear plants.

Hospital discharges into care homes – Scottish Government guidance for the home owners was stricter and care homes that received discharges actually had a lower rate of Covid because they were the best and made sure they did talkingupscotlandtwo.com/202…

Labour underwrote a £600 million loan so INEOS could open an oil refinery in Belgium while allowing Grangemouth to close.
Ratcliffe who owns INEOS is now a tax exile 👍
"My message to John is simple, I want to push economic power out into the regions of Scotland, do you?"
Andy Burnham challenges Scotland's First Minister John Swinney to "push power" out from Westminster and Holyrood "into the hands of local people"

Day two of the SNP conference and the only conference related story on the BBC Scotland website is one featuring Andy Burnham. That's two days running BBC BritNat has ran a Burnham focused story linked to the conference. Publicly funded propaganda.

Reform Conference in England -coverage by BBCScotland. Labour Conf in England - covered by BBCS. Tory Conf in England - lots of coverage by BBCS. The irrelevant LDs - Coverage of their English Conf by BBCS.
The SNP Conference in Scotland. The Party of Government. Nada.

Hopefully the penny drops with Scottish voters that Scotland is being used as a dumping ground for nukes, assorted munitions and nuclear stations whilst our oil, gas and renewable electricity is siphoned off. House Jocks like Alexander are self-serving placemen for London.

Fighting obesity with drugs - BBC Scotland's one-sided, unbalanced reporting fails to tell you of a more sustainable, equitable, and cost-effective population-level approach and the really 'leading' Scottish doctor who knows all about it talkingupscotlandtwo.com/202…

Tawdry little tricks like this have no place in public service broadcasting. Older people will now worry unnecessarily because the NHS has been linked to a flu vaccine shortage. Moreover, it's now more likely to *cause* a shortage as folk panic and rush to get a jag.

Breaking News; Joseph Rowentree have claimed in their recent report that Westminster UK Government austerity and cost of living crisis is the main factors in Scotlands battle against child poverty.

When a body becomes overtly political, as BMA Scotland has been for some time, the BBC is obliged to challenge and scrutinise anything it says. It can no longer be presented as a neutral but must be treated as though pursuing a political agenda.

Yep just swap the word ‘Europe’ for ‘Independence’ and she’s made the same case for the right to decide a new future for Scotland.
