Clearly the BBC are yet again ‘gunning for Swinney” on behalf of a (pro) UK party (just as they also did , and still are doing, to former FM’s who were SNP leaders).

That is their BBC 24/7 objective in Scotland.

While surely the real issue here is the ending of the Triple lock Pension and why that decision was taken and so the possible potential consequences it may have for Scotland.

(Also will it then benefit England and their National Care service , in it then freeing up money that was formerly allocated to sustain the Triple Lock pension policy for all UK pensioners?)

So what is the significant issue here for Scotland, that unfortunately , yet again, the BBC have decided to diminish, as a significant part of this argument, in framing the argument to try to frame Swinney as being the villain in yet another British Nationalist concocted #SNPBAD story.

The BBC top story on their Scottish politics page has a headline:

“Swinney defends claims about Scots ‘losing‘ pensions”

“Swinney defends” ( as yet again it is only the SNP who must defend their position while others, including the BBC, are allowed to constantly attack the SNP so then they (others) need not ever be made to “defend” their positions against the SNP).

Also the word “losing” in the headline being in single quotation marks , as written as ‘losing’, to signify what , scepticism ?

As this is the BBC’s usual way of (over) sensationalising any story connected to the SNP, in them really actually suggesting this below in their headline on John Swinney:

‘Are the Scots really ‘losing’ their pensions because of this Labour UK government’s future planned decision or is Swinney lying or just being paranoic and also anti UK’ and so then the BBC are generating doubt in the minds of the readers of this #SNPBAD headline on their website.

The BBC will never sway from (over) using this adopted method of bad journalism , in them always stooping very very low , all in the hope that this will eventually work in it hopefully being successful in turning more people in Scotland against the SNP.

Simples , or so it seems to them, but very very difficult to have to swallow for some of us Scots.
