Wings Over Scotland is a (mainly) Scottish political media digest and monitor, which also offers its own commentary. (More)
How about we give nurses/carers/essential workers £65K a year for starters and MPs/bankers get £30K a year and a clap every Thursday? 🤔
So print money. Print lots of it. Give people a #UniversalBasicIncome, at least until a few months after the lockdown ends. There isn't an alternative that is as simple, elegant and foolproof.
There is no reason NOT to print money and give it to people right now. The economy is in crisis for a non-economic reason. People aren't working or going out. The economy can't work without consumers but without work, many people have no money.
Wings Over Scotland
In the creation of news business at least these guys create funny news
I bet if you were to put this on the BBC there are folk out there who would believe it though
Ohhhh unlucky. Only a family of three.
I was told this episode would be ‘different’…
I thought boring, routine unexciting.
Boy! Was that brilliantly done! Laughed out loud at so many bits: Stu your cameo role was brief but smiletastic. 😀 The inclusion of Mike Pence was inspirational!
But guys..stick to the news and leave the singing to erm..someone else. ;D 😀
It is worrying that the gap between spoof news and the BBC is so narrow…and closing!
That video is beautiful. Best yet. Giving me even stronger The Day Today vibes.
Funniest yet
Looks like the US is cutting (illegal) Arms sales to the Saudis. The Saudi the highest Defence spending (pro rata) in the world. $69Billion (including internal) for 33Million people. The economy is tanking
The US the 2nd highest (pro rata) Defence Bill in the world. $611Billion. (328Million pop) Unaffordable. A third of all Defence spending total in the world.
Much improved from 2014 – the production values are far better than BBC Revolting Scotland.
I don’t usually comment here, the quality of Dateline 2018’s output however, has left me no choice.
It’s not just the news where you are, it’s the news where everyone is.
It is quite simply, (without any exaggeration whatsoever), the best thing on the internet.
That is all.
That was nothing short of brilliant.
James’ face at 9.15.
Hope the fire didn’t spread to Bumhole.
You know this stuff is more believable than tbe real spin. Oops did I just say that.
when will we find out what happened to Scottish Independence though?
Next week Ian, and that’s a Dateline guarantee!
Warming up here guys, I feel a classic coming on.
Keep at it!!
That was funny and disturbing in equal measures 🙂
Martin looked like he was overheating, obviously been too close to the gas explosion
Live meltdown. Very funny.
Excellent stuff Dateline2018, thanks for the subtitlings too.
Saturday is a comin’…
Hey, weird, aye went for another view of the video again on a different device and the presenter subs had gone… they were not present.

Very vivid eitherway, will view again on original device and r.b.
Evenin’ David Baker, lovely sunny weather we’re all having.
Yee-har, turned out ones original viewing device was defaulted to receive the videos in ‘available subtitles’ mode, sweet, thought aye was mibbies gaslighting maself there hehe hehe. 🙂
Once in a lifetime.
Twice in a lifetime.
As many times as it takes in our lifetime.
