MSM Monitor twitter #X’ account tweeted yesterday:
“Domestic issues the Radio Scotland phone-in has covered this week.
1. Minimum unit pricing
2. Strictly Come Dancing
3. Early prisoner release
It failed to cover the hike in electricity bills or the Labour donations scandal.
Two of the biggest news stories this week.
Minimum unit pricing has been the subject of the phone-in at least a dozen times going back years.
Strictly Come Dancing was covered on the very day electricity bills went up by 10%.
The early prisoner release scheme didn’t result in anything significant, but the subject was chosen the day after it emerged Keir Starmer was to pay back thousands of pounds worth of donations.
Something very odd is happening inside the Radio Scotland phone-in production team. Subjects awkward for Labour are being ignored”
MSM Monitor is right as these ‘phone-ins’ on Radio Scotland , courtesy of Kaye Adams and also via ‘Debate Night’ host Stephen Jardine, is a constant in the obvious agenda and deflection that we witness them adopting.
BBC Scotland trying to pretend that Scotland as part of the UK is however not impacted by UK Reserved matters or indeed by the UK PM (and other UK government ministers) caught in the middle of a scandal and of course Labour telling us that when elected as the new UK government energy prices will go down – then guess what they went up on 1 October !
Yet the new Director of BBC Scotland insisted (as in would “defend until her dying day”) that the BBC were not biased or agenda driven.
Well viewers, listeners and those who read the Scottish section of their BBC website would beg to differ.
I mean the evidence is all there.
Talking-up Scotland 'Albatraz' 
Torching that edifice of colonial dog shit should be the first act of an indepndent Scotland.

Every time I see ‘early prisoner release’ I can’t help thinking about the Hitchhikers guide to the Galaxy film, where the monster at the desk says ‘you need a prisoner release form, that’s the blue form’ as they stand there with a red(?) form lol.
Does anybody listen tot he radio these days? It’s a strange way to get info, when you can’t even see the folks spouting the lies and propaganda!

“Does anybody listen to the radio these days?” In my case no, A.H. When working years ago, I did listen to G.M.S when presented by the late Derek Bateman, because in those days I thought it was quite a good programme. But of course since the prospect of Scottish Independence reared its head, the directive from head office is obviously to bad mouth any news that shows Scotland, and its Government, in a good light. In fact, that applies to any output from B.B.C Scotland News.
