It seems Humza Yousaf's Hate Speech Act has completely backfired, as thousands have reported his notorious hate "white" speech from the 20th Feb 2023. :grin:
You can fill in the form here, but we probably wont be allowed to complain from England.

Excellent.

I wonder what the position is if someone in England calls Yousaf a non-ethnic Scottish tosser.
The most disturbing part of this Bill is the following.
Third party reportingSometimes victims or witnesses of hate crime don't feel comfortable reporting the incident to the police. They might be more comfortable reporting it to someone they know.
Police Scotland works in partnership with a number of organisations and groups, to take reports, known as third party reporting centres.
Third party reporting centres could be housing associations, victim support offices and voluntary groups. Staff have been trained to recognise hate crimes and help a victim or witness to submit a report to the police.
Third party reports can be made without giving your name. However, that might affect how much investigation we can do. Find your nearest Third Party Reporting Centre. (https://www.scotland.police.uk/contact-us/report-hate-crime-and-third-party-reporting/third-party-reporting-centres/)

It's a disgraceful piece of legislation, about as disgraceful as the FM's anti white rant - but what can one expect from the SNP?

I'm afraid that this nonsense is going to continue unabated in broken Britain.
The only way it will stop is when Islam takes over the country completed. Expect many realistic and very harsh laws to come.
These self-indulgent men will suddenly revert to dressing like men... or else!
I shall not be here when all of that happens, but I can at least feel confident that those changes will happen.

Other 'thoughtfully selected' locations to dish your family include, 'A sex shop' and a 'Salmon Cannery'.
It seemed impossible to imagine a more shoddy administration than Sunak's. However this latest Scottish regurgitation of socialist madness is it. Straight from a horror comedy I can't quite understand how this ex 'call centre' employee (Yusuf) ever reached the position he now retains, he needs sectioning right away.
You also have to consider the intellect of the people who support the exploits of these cretinous morons?
I sincerely hope JK Rowling does get arrested by McPlod and fights them all the way back to the ignorant vacuum of their Black Hole!
they've chickened out - her words are, apparently, nit a crime (nor should they bloody well be, but in this crazy country..) I speak of the politicians, not the ordinary Scot.
Good for JKR!
At the end of the day, the people we vote for to run the country should be what we expect.
The Scots seem to want to vote only for the SNP.
Perhaps they should try someone different, whilst they still have the ability to do so.
It is the same in England, and the whole UK, for that matter.
We last voted for the Conservatives. They have made a mess of the country over the past several years, so what should we do now?
It seems that the majority will now vote in Labour. Perhaps they have forgotten what that party did the last time they were in power: BLiar and Brown.
At the end of the day, if we don't like what is going on and want change, we should consider carefully the options available to us.
Unsurprisingly, I shall vote for Reform, but it seems that most people are afraid to do so.

You are correct, if I lived down south I too would vote for change, as I did here when we gave the SNP a chance.
Now since our FM has changed I don't know what to do, none of the others are worth voting for IMO, it's a heartbreaking mess.

Yes, I fulsomely concur. We are collectively united by a common mistrust across both our Nations, where politicians have demonstrated dishonesty and hypocrisy to unknown and shameful levels.
They are 'all the same' and unworthy of even bothering to waste the time and effort turning out for ...
No one really stands out as a politician of any integrity. I don't think Hamza's priority is Scotland.

Reform may possibly stand in Scotland!
But would any Scots vote for them?
I honestly think that they would benefit us all, on both sides of the border.
Scotland has always been more left wing than much of England. The SNP mainly took votes from Labour. Although we will both vote for reform, I've resigned myself to an incoming Labour government.
With regard to hate crimes, I know it's rarer now, but being English 🏴 in Scotland hasn't always been popular. I wonder how seriously the police will take anti English rhetoric aimed at individuals?

The one good thing about Labour getting into government is that they'll create even more of a mess than the Tories did. After another four years, or possibly even less, there will be another election.
Hopefully, the ruin caused by each of the 'two main parties' will be fresh in people's minds, and they might then vote Reform en masse.
There are a lot of people who regard Reform with disdain. There are also still plenty who either haven't heard of the party or have no idea what its policies may be. Politics is still tribal. I now regard all three main parties with disdain. If there were no Reform I fear I would likley no longer vote. I think there are plenty like me but they probably won't vote Reform either.
I sit to the right of centre in politics and used to vote Conservative. I don't think my views have shifted far but the Conservative party certainly has. I see little difference between them and the Blair version of Labour. I did once vote Liberal post the Heath fiasco as a protest vote. After the recent disgusting anti-democratic LibDem stance on Brexit there is zero chance of that ever being repeated.

I see Labour is ahead of SNP In the polls, first time since the referendum. How were the canny Scots duped for so long ?
Won't there be a policing problem at Celtic v Rangers football games I mean how do you arrest thousands of people questioning the parentage and sexual identity of the opposing team fans?
Follow, follow indeed :rolleyes:

I think there were some who didn't care about any policies, but just loved the name 'Scottish National Party' because it excluded the English. 😮

What a success she was ... "Bollocks to Brexit" (her idea). Lib-Dems have though 'swamped' the Conservative 'Parliamentary Party" with the 'One Nation' bedwetters now running things. They'd hoped with a sort of middle/left wokist stance to dominate the 'Global'viewpoint. The Election will see if they were right?
Quote from: Cassandra on April 11, 2024, 02:17:03 PMThe Election will see if they were right?
Won't it just. They really should learn that trying to appeal to a section of the electorate that despises them will just alienate those that were voting for them. I hope they crash and burn badly enough to push the globalist wokistas away and then the grass roots may be able to bring forward some candidates that won't be hated by all as the bulk of the current lot certainly appear to be.
