Above, BBC Scotland reporting in the least violent part of the UK and, below, BBC England reporting in the most violent part of the UK:
The BBC Scotland report does actually allow Police Scotland and the Justice Minister to mention the downward trend but, too late, once more an image of an SNP leader has been associated with something apparently very bad about Scotland.
Not in the BBC Scotland report, these key facts:
Talking-up Scotland 'Albatraz' 
BBC Scotland’s anti-SNP news filter working at capacity .
Out with the SNP good news in with the SNP ‘bad’ news ( even if in context with the rUK it is actually quite good )!
Clearly BBC Scotland editors have read Orwell’s 1984 – but use it as a template !

It’s despicable how Labour treat their voters when they have no opposition. 👇

“Hundreds of people are facing imminent homelessness after their Merseyside flat blocks were condemned by the fire service as being unsafe.
Residents of Beech Rise and Willow Rise in Kirkby, Merseyside – consisting of 160 flats in total – have been told they need to find somewhere else to live “immediately”.
Sky News understands a meeting took place this morning involving the government to discuss the situation, although one source described the circumstances as a “waiting game” to see what other parties do next.
Due to the worsening condition of the buildings, Merseyside Fire and Rescue Service told building managers a round-the-clock “waking watch” – a fire safety system where trained personnel continuously patrol a building – was required as a safety measure.”

“Anneliese Midgley, the MP for Knowsley, says she is working with the council and government to support the impacted families.
She said the situation is “nothing short of a scandal”.”
Scandal? This council has been under Labour majority control since its creation in 1974!
