Andy North Croy Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 For the first 10-15 mins of tonight's programme we had Labour MP Ian Davidson and ex-Labour MSP Frank McAveety given free rein to promote their party without any opposition politicians present....................can this get any more blatant?

Aye, it can. The second half wasn't any better. Some posh burd who obviously hated Alex SaLLmond and another Labour person. Not sure who the guy on the screen was, but he didn't get much chance to say anything anyway. Edited March 9, 2015 by Orraloon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't see it tonight but I think it's usually quite good. If they had any bias in the IndyRef I'd have said it was slightly more pro Yes/SNP IMO.

That pair can surely do more harm than good: a bullying, misogynistic dinosaur and an incompetent, sleazy lech. It is almost as if Labour have even started negatively campaigning against themselves!

Must be a bizarre role reversal tonight, I watched a bit of Scotland 2015 and it was very pro Nicola Sturgeon...

Didn't see it tonight either and Sarah Smith was often criticised here for being slightly the other way, but compared to a lot of IndyRef coverage at the time she was actually ok IMO (in contrast to Jackie Bird et al).

It's a bloody disgrace the daughter of an ex-liebore leader is given the job of presenting a Scottish politics show. If any further proof was required about the state broadcaster's bias, then that is it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toepoke Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 (edited) She's her own person and not bad IMO. I like the way she scrunches her nose up and says "Do join us then" at the end of the programme. Edited March 10, 2015 by Toepoke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stapes Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 She forgot her guest's name last night. You can hear her apologising almost immediately. Don't think she's too bad, certainly in comparison to Kirsty Wark or Jackie Bird. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
