BBC BritNat is running A9 dualling again. It never mentions the fact that the SNP wanted to dual the A9 when the party took power back in 2007. The three Unionist parties, led by Labour, forced it to spend the money on the Edinburgh Trams instead.

Worth reading this thread regarding the history of the A9 and the pre-devolution response from the UK Govt Scotland Office to calls for something to be done to improve safety.
@msm_monitor I'm a bit of an A9 expert. I policed it for over 20 years. During its most dangerous phase when Tayside police had Dedicated patrols for the A9 . I felt woth over 50 fatal accidents. Officers pleaded with the then Scottish (colonial) office to make improvements to the

Multiple examples of how BBC Scotland undermines confidence in Scottish institutions, especially the NHS, by constantly presenting England as superior. This has been going on for years. Blatant colonial brainwashing disguised as news.

Two massive #Scottish stories ( Nuclear leak at Faslane & #LabourParty MSP indecent photos) both suppressed by the media. If it’s not #Snp bad news, then it’s not news. Welcome to Scotland 🏴. #YouYesYet

It is not good enough for Israel to say this is propaganda, starving a population is horrific, and that is what’s happening. It must end now
Famine has now been officially declared in Gaza City by a UN-backed report. Families and children are dying of starvation, and this is just not a tragedy - it is genocide in plain sight. There must be an immediate ceasefire, urgent aid into Gaza, and sanctions on Israel.

Fixed it for you @BBCNews Language matters. Under international law, settlements are illegal. While Palestinian journalists in Gaza give their lives for the truth, is it too much to ask for other media outlets to use the correct language and not whitewash Israeli crimes?

Today could be a turning point in Scotland’s fight to regain our independence. I’m not saying too much right now but the years of drift and failure to take advantage of the already high 50% plus independence vote are over. It’s coming 🏴

There is huge dissatisfaction with the lack of a real independence strategy and a serious, urgent, campaign to get us there. Robin McAlpine @Common_Weal on target here - ‘The doors open and we’re not going through it’.

Gordon Brown announced HS2 to fanfare in 2009 citing a cost of £20bn. The projected final cost is closer to £100bn and that's for a vastly reduced project. Where is the 'Ferries' style pursuit of Labour and the Tories for this national catastrophe? £billions wasted.

If BritNat Breakfast host Gary Robertson was genuinely seeking to scrutinise Keir Starmer over a second Indyref he'd have asked the Labour leader why he previously stated the SNP would have an Indyref2 mandate if they won a majority at Holyrood. The BBC Scotland interview was

Did anyone catch the 'alcohol deaths' news item this morning that said alcohol deaths were at their highest since 2008? The figures used are eight months out of date. They were published last Sept and rose due to lockdown. We'll not know the latest figures for four months.

Anas Sarwar was torn to ribbons at the STUC conference yesterday over his Grangemouth lies. This needs circulated widely.

Thatcher wouldn't have dared close Grangemouth after handing Carbon Capture projects to the north of England. So what's going on? Scottish Labour hate the SNP so much they'll stomach anything just to annoy the Nats. Starmer knows this. He can do whatever he wants to Scotland.

Former Scottish Labour front bencher Neil Findlay has said Labour lied to the electorate when it came into government and has branded its leaders "chancers and fraudsters who have completely betrayed the history of the Labour party".

Pam Duncan-Glancy has gone quiet. We're certain that disabled groups would like to know her views on Labour's disabled benefit cuts. She stood shoulder to shoulder with them last October. @GlasgowPam

In 2022 Pam Duncan-Glancy criticised the Scottish Govt because it didn't make the points process for disabled benefits more lenient than the UK Govt one. What is Pam thinking now? She can't support Starmer and Reeves. She'd lose all credibility. https://t.co/YSNwglbw7W

Police have had to be called after people began dumping household rubbish in the street in Birmingham. Bin collectors in the Labour run local authority went on all-out strike over a week ago. The story should be all over the national BBC news, but isn't.

The leader of Unite in Scotland has effectively called the UK Labour Govt and Ian Murray liars over claims they made about supporting Grangemouth. This should be a major story on BBC Scotland. Sadly the station is too corrupt to run this. It damages Labour too much.
