The FM 'business class' smear, BBC hatchet job on Glasgow, BBC ignoring the Glasgow Games, Labour China turbine veto. These stories are breaking along constitutional lines and that's a problem for the BBC. It's taking a side. Folk who aren't political are beginning to sense it.

Sir Keir Starmer is under mounting pressure from his Cabinet to rethink Labour's net-zero agenda.
The Times has been told that, in an escalating battle over the future of the party, ministers are increasingly questioning the central argument behind Labour's opposition to new North Sea drilling. They warn that the government risks ignoring the wider economic benefits of domestic oil and gas production.

The expected response was “The UK Government does not support independence or another referendum.” But Scotland is not asking Westminster to support independence - only to respect Scotland’s right to choose. That decision belongs to the people of Scotland, not Westminster. Where's the democracy?
