If Rupert Murdoch had his way there would no longer be a UK. Remember last year he instructed the readers of the Sun to vote Tory and the readers of the Scottish Sun to vote SNP - and they did.
Brexit is only the first move in the breakup of the UK which seems to be his main goal. Remember he is not British and his excessive power here is no indication that he cares a hoot about this country.
The SNP are also campaigning to control the BBC. They don't like News at Six because it comes from London, even though Scottish viewers, like those elsewhere also get local news. They would like to replace it with something they refer to as "Scottish Six" which for all we know could turn out to be an hour long party political broadcast for the SNP.
This is dangerous control freakery. Totalitarian governments everywhere want to control the media.
