BBC Scotland’s agenda is clear, even on D Day – Labour must be defended.

BBC UK?

This:

One smaller story.

BBC Wales?

Professional journalism.

BBC Northern Ireland?

The same.

Meanwhile what is really happening in Scotland, to millions of us?

This:

The Scottish Government is estimated to have invested almost £1.4 billion to benefit children in low income households in the last financial year.

The investment is detailed in an annual progress report which highlights key actions to tackle child poverty including:

• Awarding almost £430 million to families through the Scottish Child Payment, supporting more than 329,000 children as of 31 March 2024
• Widening eligibility for Best Start Foods, the benefit which helps low-income families access nutritious food, so thousands more children and pregnant women can benefit
• Supporting around 4,400 children through continued work to develop a system of school age childcare and continuing to provide 1140 hours of funded childcare for all eligible children
• Providing free bus travel to over 2.3 million people, with 727,000 children and young people registered as of March 2024
• Delivering 6,045 affordable homes across Scotland, with two thirds for social rent, between April and December 2023 – helping an estimated 2,015 households with children into affordable housing

Kind of newsworthy but I see that it might increase support for the SNP and they can’t have that can they?
