Reporting Scotland 1.30pm today, tell us the above on drug deaths in 2021. 4%? A ‘slight fall’ when compared with the same period last year. Wrong. From the report:
4% does not appear anywhere in the report. BBC Scotland’s website has no mention. 10% is more than significant and certainly not slight..
No comment from Jackie Baillie?

The usual BBC Hootsmon “slight of hand”.
Slippery news management from the gutter. Or Pacific Quay.
Whichever is lower.

As to the source of ABC ( BBC )
Reporting
Afraid to inform you that in this instance
You are completely wrong
As just like you identify the source of a river
Then one can clearly identify that without doubt that the source comes from the Anal regions of the most Snr.Editors and News Managers of the
(ABC ) BBC

Actually John, I think BBC may be right this time.
If you add the figures from the paragraph you quote, which I think is not too clear, 1007 (2021) versus 1047 (2020) the reduction of 40 equals 3.8% or have I miscalculated?

Having said that 10% reduction in third quarter compared to same quarter the previous year, is significant and BBC obviously used the 9 months figures to talk Scotland Down as they always do.

Now I’m getting a headache.
They do say 10% in the official report?
