Edinburgh City Council leader Jane Marr says Glasgow is being prioritised over Edinburgh when it comes to fire recovery funding. Do you think the money is being shared fairly?

BBC ‘Scotland’ is at it again….but then, (big sigh), that is what we have all come to know and expect by this British propaganda outfit that works relentlessly for the sustainment of their UK State.

MSM Monitor added a post via BBC Radio Scotland (sourced from an accusation by the Labour leader of the Council in Edinburgh against the Scottish government- the SNP).

The BBC Radio Scotland post on ‘X’ stated this:

“Edinburgh City Council leader Jane Marr says Glasgow is being prioritised over Edinburgh when it comes to fire recovery funding. Do you think the money is being shared fairly” ?

“Has Edinburgh being short changed” ?

“Mornings ask – Has Edinburgh been short-changed with the Fire Fund” ?

(BBC Radio Scotland having yet another phone in for certain people to have yet another opportunity to attack the Scottish government – the SNP , purely based on accusations made by a member of the opposition party -Labour, while also the BBC misrepresents the attack being made by that Labour opposition politician).

MSM Monitor had to correct this info posted by BBC Radio Scotland when he added this below response on ‘X’:

“Three important points.

1. She’s a *Labour* councillor.

2. Her name isn’t Marr, it’s Meagher.

3. She isn’t complaining about the funding amount [She confirmed this in the phone-in]. She’s complaining about the response.

Clumsy and transparent propaganda by BBC BritNat”.

Well done MSM Monitor for noticing this.

As the BBC failed to add the party Ms Meagher represented.

They, the BBC, could not even write her correct surname .

They, the BBC, completely misrepresented the complaint .

I honestly do not know either how nor why this so called news section of the BBC within Scotland are allowed to do this kind of botched hatchet job on the Scottish government (the SNP) time and time again.

They, the BBC, are clearly , as supposed news providers, not fit for the purpose of communicating that news within Scotland , but instead they are, it seems , just allowed to constantly misrepresent information to the public that predominantly, as supposed #Badnews, is always mainly targeting the SNP .

This constant stream of disinformation comes with no punishment for them, as it seems that the so called media regulator that supposedly exists within the UK State is itself also unfit for the purpose it was supposed to fulfil.

Of course this noticeable constant bad behaviour and poor practice is allowed to exist because it seems that neither the BBC nor Ofcom cares about the lack of quality in the news output within Scotland. (indeed it seems to be encouraged as a behaviour as it happens so frequently).

In fact one would be correct in thinking that the more disinformation there was against the SNP, as a party and as the Scottish government, then the better that is seen to be for their UK State to be sustained.

The problem with this British Broadcasting Corporation being allowed to broadcast news within Scotland is that they, as a (fake) news provider, do not want to produce news for Scotland’s benefit and welfare, but instead they want to produce news that is patently working against Scotland’s best interests, politically , economically and also culturally.

The BBC , like pro UK political parties, are still actively campaigning for their UK State , a UK State that they sometimes laughingly call a ‘Union’, while they are also pretending that the constitutional question is now settled.

It is not, hence why I write that they, opponents of Scottish independence, are ‘pretending’ the constitutional Q is settled.

If that was really the case , as in the constitutional Q was indeed believed to be actually finally settled, then the BBC would not need to still behave in the way that is always does (i.e. badly) , particularly when it comes to their producing so much (fake) news about Scotland.

(Especially their supposed ‘political’ news within Scotland , i.e. political news that both shields and protects pro UK parties while also they , the BBC, are clearly voracious in their orchestrating constant attacks against the SNP to try to harm them politically).
