As Westminster are entirely opposed to Scottish independence;
1) How can this Regulator of media be impartial and afford equal suffrage in our campaign?
2) How can this Regulator of media be impartial if the leader of the Better Together campaign was the former BBC Chief Executive Officer?
3) The BBC has suppressed the positive side of the campaign and promoted the cause of those against, by presenting a bombardment of negativity towards Scottish independence whilst aiding Westminster's media spin campaign against us.
4) As the Regulator, Westminster's BBC has banned any other news network except the BBC from independently covering the Scottish Independence referendum, so any international coverage has only been a biased drip fed amalgamation of misrepresentation of the truth of the positive campaign.
We are rightly opposed to the BBC acting as the Regulator and there is much evidence to support bias and unfair almost unilateral presentation of Westminster spin in favour of the negative campaign!
This is an outrage and is not in the spirit of the Human Rights Act, to provide equal suffrage in campaigning in democratic governance elections!
We the undersigned hereby demand in the interests of democracy, that the regulator is replaced by an independent Regulator perhaps outside these islands, which has no involvement with either side of the campaign!

I have been reading through the accounts you are sending me about the biased coverage you see on your screens every single night. It is clear that the frustration I feel about this unfair process is shared by people across the country who just want a truthful debate.

Finally someone is calling them out. They dont even try to hide the bias anymore its disgusting.
The BBC is totally biased against us. Watching the news is actually painful right now.
Absolute joke how they run things. About time we had someone else in charge of reporting this.
Managed to sign (dont use facebook or twitter option) but still only 618 showing. Is this because I never gave them money?
I'm sorry I don't know why Catriona! First I've heard of this problem. Everyone else managing to sign so far. :-(
It wont register my signature and seems stuck at 618, whats happening?
Its not registering my signature, nor my husbands.
