i'm talking looking at the viewing public as a whole, you are talking as an individual. its basic zoology, and i'm not wrong

. the bigger the group of people, the more predictable they are. you can never tell if an individual is going to choose to go to university, but you can predict that if 200,000 people chose to go last year, and 195,000 the year before, you're probably going to get a whisker over 200,000 people applying this year.
voting publics are predictable. 90% of non-white females up against someone who is either white, male, or both, have been evicted on Big Brother. women tend to be voted off when head to head against men.
sorry, but if you think there isn't a bloc scottish vote in these contests, then i believe you're very much mistaken. why do you think asian constituencies have asian candidates put forward by labour/tories/lib dems? its about representing the population, and the voting public are very much an electorate, and the scots very much do get behind their man/woman.
i am amazed you have put forward "do you still assert that Scottish viewers are less capable of nonpartisan discrimination than viewers from other parts of the UK", as this is clearly a figment of your imagination. I think all voting constituencies are fairly equally biased, there just happen to be a lot of Scots, and not many Chinese people, by comparison, in the UK. were there lots of chinese people, we'd have had loads of chinese winners. Please read what i post, before trying to put words in my mouth that i have never said nor thought, to try to win your own argument against a notion that not only have i not said or thought, but you yourself have actually fabricated.
