By Liz S “Pro-Palestinian protesters STORM John Swinney’s Fringe appearance” There is a video on YouTube of this (via The Daily Mirror , the client media of the Labour party)…..call me cynical but there are (were) other political interviews during the Fringe and I wonder if some of these same ‘protestors’ or others will ‘protest’ or did ‘protest’ at these other political events (interviews) on the Fringe….. Anas Sarwar, from Labour was one of the other political interviewees at the Fringe and his interview was not subject to pro Palestine protests …..so why was he, as a Labour politician, exempt … Continue reading Gaza protests – Why not target those who are part of the complicit Labour UK government?

Peter Osborne , now an apparent enlightened member of the media, and so determined to do the job as per his job description as one who considers himself to be a real and honest journalist , has written an article for the Middle East Eye. This article exposes the hypocrisy and double standards of the UK media , many of whom are compromised by their allegiance to respective UK political parties, and so as such are complicit in obscuring those things that these political parties … Continue reading The Alison Pearson case proves how corrupt much of the MSM really really are, so much so, that can we in Scotland ever really trust anything they report?
