Weekly rant on the Scotsman newspaper.

I was walking through Edinburgh today and noticed posters on the bus shelters about the fear of cancer from mobile phones.  These posters were in fact there to advertise The Scotsman newspaper. What was once a high class newspaper has now sunk to the level of the lowest daily rag. It is now only a collection of scare stories (despite the articles not reflecting the headlines) designed to increase sales. Have they not learned from May's election that this form of negativity does no one any good. If they want to sell more papers then why cant they not research and verify the truth of the stories they print. It is time for a well researched and as unbiased as possible paper to be made available to people who do not have the necessary time to trawl the net or the expense of buying different papers to get a varied opinion on the days events.

Tory Manifesto

The Scottish Tories have come up with the ultimate aid to Business. A return to Dickens Scotland. Don't fully educate the kids but send them out to the big world of work where their experience and street wise abilities will help keep them from being exploited.

What are they thinking about, hasn't this country become civilised over the last 100 years. Do they want us to go back to the dark ages where we all tug our forelocks to anyone who has a title or money.
