Anybody know which side was protesting? I was there, around 350 folk all pro indy, about 7-8 speakers including Peter Bell and a former BBC journalist. Mainly aout the lack of indy voices on radio shortbead and Reporting Scotland. Running negative stories using pro unionist comentators, taking down pro indy youtue channels, ignoring the dark money story, Brexit impact on Scotland, power grab and why they giving the Scottish office an easy ride. Saying Scottish institutions are shite and not comapring them to England and Wales such as NHS, Police, Education etc. Ignoring positive stories. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t live in Scotland or feel particularly strongly about either side in the independence argument. I would usually see bias in their reporting of economics (particularly austerity). I do recognise the agenda shifting tactics from that debate that you mention above. I hope your efforts weren’t wasted. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We pay our TV licence by monthly Direct Debit. We regularly (about monthly) get a letter saying there is no TV licence at this address, from an office in Kilmarnock, and threating us with a visit from an inspector. This has been going on for about 3 years. A guy from the TV licence people was here about 3 years ago to check our address after we sent the letter back then saying we had a licence. There are only 3 houses in our post code. Think of the cost of the dozens of letters sent out in the past 3 years saying we don't have a TV licence, which we ignore We are looking forward to some c**t from Kilmarnock turning up, and wish he would. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dirty dingus Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 (edited) Raging Britnat losing her shit when she doesn't realise selling bombs to Saudi has f**k all to do with Scottish Govt. I don't agree with giving them hauners but it seems like general practice to keep foreign companies sweet on staying in Scotland.

Nope. Selling weapons and training to a regime that uses them to get rid of civilians is a no no.

Innocent s being murdered, is ok. just the right innocents being murdered. murder and death making a profit for indy Scotland is fine, as long as it is properly justifiable to you.
