The BBC is to change its controversial new weather maps after a storm
of complaints that they were confusing and biased against Scotland and
the north.

Of course the BBC will pander to the Scottish mafia, but never to the
educated minority (as such is their perception).


You reckon Scots are uneducated?

By "educated minority" I was referring to the likes of most on this ng and
similar souls who have some interest in these matters - and in other areas
that have suffered from dumbing down in the BBC's programming. The BBC
clearly feels that we are so small in numbers and political clout that we
can be safely ignored.

Regards, Roger
