The UK media in #Scotland, spearheaded by #BBC Scotland, seem to have ramped up the #SNPBad rhetoric. Is there an election coming soon or something?

Another “mistake” from the BBC, blaming the Scottish Government for something they have no control over. Was this deliberate, or just a lazy fallback to the BBC’s standard #SNPBad stock report?
Do not trust the BBC.

BBC issues correction after Scottish Government driving test claim

BBC Scotland has issued a correction after a post on social media wrongly suggested that the Scottish Government is responsible for driving tests ...

Scotland’s ferry services are appalling, aren’t they? We know because the BBC constantly tells us so.
But this poll of the people who actually use the service suggests they are pretty satisfied. Funny that. It’s almost as if the BBC has some sort of agenda.

Is this why there have been no surveys of ordinary ferry-users’ views – more than 90% feel ‘well’ or ‘very well’-served?’ https://talkingupscotlandtwo.com/2025/04/16/is-this-why-there-have-been-no-surveys-of-ordinary-ferry-users-more-than-90-feel-well-or-very-well-served/
Is this why there have been no surveys of ordinary ferry-users’ views – more than 90% feel ‘well’ or ‘very well’-served?’

92.5% of the 186 respondents, living on the islands, felt well or very well-served by CalMac ferries. 95.1% of the 103 tourists who visit the islands, felt well or very well-served by CalMac ferrie…

BBC News - HMS Queen Elizabeth: Leak found on new aircraft carrier I'm sure this will get as much #torybad press as the Forth Bridge snagging got #snpbad eh #bbcbias ?
Tory political logic We believe in charging for prescriptions in England because those who can afford it should fund public services Except of course in Scotland where higher tax is automatically #snpbad #ScotBudget #marr
@MadeyeTheCarnaptious Yes, I saw both of those. I mentioned in a post yesterday that Laura Maxwell is behind far too many “Mistakes” like this. My conclusion is that she’s either not up to the job of being a proper presenter, or she’s deliberately lying in order to create #SNPBad stories. Of course, she’s far from alone, but the fact that she keeps doing it convinces me it is deliberate.
Another “Mistake” from #BBC #Scotland. And yet again, it’s arch-Unionist Laura Maxwell the culprit. She makes so many “Mistakes” that she’s clearly either not up to the job or she’s deliberately lying to the public in attempts to create #SNPBad headlines. Either way, this happens far too often.

BBC apologises after SNP hit out at 'false claim' on Scottish income tax https://www.thenational.scot/news/24676587.bbc-apologises-snp-hit-false-claim-scottish-income-tax/?ref=rss

The so-called #BBC the English state broadcaster is turning the news of the death of #alexsalmond into an #SNPbad and #scotland is a basket case story.

No surprise there.

How have we ended up in a position where the state of the Scottish Human Rights Bill is somehow an #SNPbad thing?

It was the Tory government who stepped in to block it as it infringed on them, and unless there's a solution to that impasse then there's not much more they can do, surely? I somehow doubt Labour will be any more accommodating considering they seem hellbent on destroying the SNP from Westminster as it is.

The real solution to this is, of course, independence!

@kuantancurls I was very surprised by the article, the typical guardian #snpbad might be in there but there is also a message of inevitability for #ScottishIndependence in there. And the point about the #SNP being maybe a touch too lawful-good in their dealings with westmonster feels valid, especially since they have taken the gloves off and are directly interfering in devolved matters.
