And the Met Police holding back on Johnson's criminal investigation (when Mayor of London) to "protect his interests" really "takes the biscuit"!! I wonder when the bbc will finally "show their true colours" or if the Oxbridge Tory infiltrators within their senior ranks will be marginalised!!?

Wowwwwwww!!! That didn't take long eh!!!!! The bbc exposed again as the Tory backing bastards that they really are!!!! The pitiful excuse that was given re this cover up for Johnson's gaffe yesterday at the Cenotaph just confirms there are elements in the bbc that ensure it resembles and behaves no differently from Russian state radio - an absolute disgrace but something that has been well sussed out up here down the years in Scotland by lotsa vigilant Scottish observers and Scot indy backing media people.
If we can't trust the BBC to report news which isn't biased, then who can we trust? I don't know if any of you have read 1984 but in 1984 the character Winston Smith works as a clerk in the records department of the ministry of truth where his job is to rewrite historical documents and history books so they fit the current party line. Also they had Newspeak where they had to dumb down and cut out vocabulary and eliminate many words in the English language because a higher range of vocabulary demonstrates higher intelligence.
What "strikes me" about this latest revelation re the bbc is that it has followed on from a similar despicable incident when a video recording of Labour's Keir-Starmer-Smith was "doctored" by Tory campaign officials to present a totally different negative image of the interview on Good Morning Britain.

This highly questionable ploy was rightly challenged and should be highlighted as the "thin end of the wedge" that is akin to the anti-democratic practise of the likes of a Russian dictator or a S American demagogue such as Pinochet!!! But this is 21st century UK that we are inhabiting and we should be better than this shit. Thankfully we don't practise in such a dishonourable way in Scotland and I hope we never stoop so low i.e. let these desperate unionists make fools of themselves again but this time lets see the Scottish population absolutely "turn on them" with no quarter given this time.
Re that Farage "about turn" and Trump affiliated alliance with Johnson and his fascist chums, here is an enlightening Guardian article by Polly Toynbee re the role of the progressive parties to "get their act together" and Labour's usual "f####d up" position in likely fragmenting the vote in key constituencies to the detriment of other progressive parties.
