HTG Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 She sounded fine to me and I usually have a hell of a time trying to understand folk from around weegieland. It's a sad state of affairs when Scots turn on Scots because they don't talk in a 1950s style RP. In this case it's just Daily Mail types like Thundercats scrambling for any kind of relevance after being totally rattled by a 20 year old delivering a speech that went round the world in minutes. As for that fuckin daft history woman - she'll be gnawing on a cricket stump to try and stifle her rage. What a fuckin arsehole she's made of herself.

Mr Bairn Posted July 16, 2015 Author Share Posted July 16, 2015 I wonder why Moggy wasn't goven the chance to follow Mhairi and compliment her speech. That's what's happened with the other speeches from the snp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something that i fear will take generations to rectify, if ever and just allows foxnews light over on sky to set the agenda. But they're political coverage in Scotland is a disgrace.

xbl. Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 Find it hard to attack the BBC right now... I don't. As an institution, it needs to die. I havent paid a license fee or watched it live for years, I've never watched their Newsnicht replacement, and I read about their institutionally corrupt lies with increasing disgust. Interesting that the recent BBC report into Scotland said EXACTLY what we on the Yes side said about the BBC. At the time, we were vilified as Nick Robinson and the Quisling Marr peddled their lies, as James Naughtie was sent up to tell us Scotch what was what, and as their coverage became nothing short of farcial. Their Scottish arm needs to wither away and die. They have long since passed the point of no return. Yes. I attended the BBC protests. And when Im in cravenland, I dedicate my twitter time to harrassing the Unionist media. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

williemillersmoustache Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 Supras would have called me a BBC apologist by now. I think this new fella, xbl is right on a number of things but gelding the BBC, as partisan and as hypocritical as they are, would be a massively regressive step.

I think this new fella, xbl is right on a number of things but gelding the BBC, as partisan and as hypocritical as they are, would be a massively regressive step. I think there is a process we are all following, and everyone is at different stages.1. Not really interested in Scotch politics. Trust the BBC. Big events aren't "News" till confirmed on the BBC. 2. Taking an interest in politics watch, read, and listen to BBC Scotland more. 3. Noticing that the coverage isnt always very fair, but then, nobody is perfect, right? 4. Coverage is definitely skewed, Reporting Scotland is bullshit. Reading newsnet, but Wings is too far. 5. Watching the BBC to laugh at it, but actually getting your news from alternate sources. 6. Starting to read Wings now. No longer watching the BBC much. Spending more and more time slagging the BBC off. 7. Boycotting the BBC. Everyone I know is on that progression somewhere. Its all about the journey. I was an early adopter. I was on step 7 when the main Unionists on here were still loyal to the good old BBC. As for now, I'd even be tempted to vote Lib Dem if they promised to burn Pacific Quay to the ground with the BBC news team locked inside. Im not sure what step that is. Im not a fan.
