Quite shocking admission from the BBC in Scotland. Use your own made-up stats, and they won't challenge you. In fact they'll amplify your made-up stats - if you're from the right* party.

*By "right party" I mean not a Scottish party like 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐍𝐏.

What? Political parties (preferred status) are allowed to have their own waiting list platformed by the state run broadcaster? Move along nothing to see here. 👇

If Scotland can run its health system, education, and justice—why not foreign policy and economy too?

Self-determination isn’t radical. It’s normal.

Violent Crime in Scotland is at an all-time low. It's been falling for decades.

Lurid reports, in the trashy UK tabloids, will try to suggest, it's out of control. Britain's a war zone.

In Scotland, it's at its lowest, since Records began.

Read facts, not alarmist, London Newspaper trash.

Farage, who was paid £189,000 in January to promote gold bullion in his spare time, is currently wanging on about how out of touch the Labour frontbench is. Ok

So, Farage, in the same breath, has stated that:

Minimum wage should be cut for young people (currently at £10 an hour - oh the largesse!)

And

Young people earning over £100k a year should get tax cuts.

That tells you just about everything you need to know about where his priorities lie.

Nigel Farage Says Minimum Wage Should Be Cut for Young People

The Reform leader said cutting the minimum wage for young people would boost business, as he attacked plans to raise taxes on the wealthy

Another 55mins of Farage carried live by BBC and Sky, in which he rambled for twice as long as briefed, and yet managed to say little of substance.

Why can broadcasters not simply give us 3mins of the low-lights after the event, as they would do with most other politicians? ~AA

They were crooks and shysters to a man

They repeated Putin talking points and appeared on Russia Today

UKIP then and Reform now are both a threat to our democracy

Yet not once have I heard Reform talk about this

Not once have I heard them back measures to protect women’s safety

In fact, they voted against them...

In 2023 alone you gave £2m to the Daily Mail.
