The victim in the SNP's own sex pest scandal was hung out to dry for years - Ian Blackford’s statement and his crocodile tears about ‘victim support’ came about only after he had been exposed for rallying behind the perpetrator, Patrick Grady! The SNP should be thoroughly ashamed. SNP Sex Pest Victim Speaks Out ( July 06, 2022 ) Devastating criticism  by the young man at the centre of the SNP's sex pest scandal. "What the SNP has done with Patrick (Grady) is totally different in that he kept the whip for the entire time, they kept him in the position of power and then isolated the victim and removed me from the equation." SNP Complainer - Hung Out To Dry ( June 25, 2022 ) Ian Blackford's attempt to justify the SNP's handling of the Patrick Grady sex pest scandal is God awful and totally embarrassing.   Because the SNP hung the complainer out to dry for 6 years and only started to talk about ‘supporting the victim’ when the recording of SNP MPs was leaked to th

Boris Johnson's defence of the handling of his party's sex pest scandal just minutes ago at First Minister's Questions - sounded just like the lies, cover up and excuses from the SNP over  its own sex pest scandal.

Yet this ever embarrassing trans warrior is always pontificating about other people's behaviour. How disrespectful and very telling! 

Patrick Grady victim says Tory handling of sex assault claims 'put SNP to shame' https://t.co/I4nvSi4STd — Record Politics (@Record_Politics) July 5, 2022 The young victim of the Patrick Grady sex pest scandal says the party's handling of the situation puts the SNP to shame. I couldn't agree more and it's high time the SNP's absurd 'wheeshtingforindy' gagging clause on party activists was put to the sword.      SNP Politicians - Speaking Up vs 'Wheeshtingforindy' ( July 04, 2022 ) What strikes me about the latest sexual harassment stories at Westminster is that Conservative MPs seem to speak up about alleged bad behaviour by fellow MPs.   Whereas SNP MPs seem to clam up and and 'wheeshtforindy' - apart from one courageous SNP member, of course, who leaked the recording of nationalist MPs rallying round a perpetrator while showing no concern for the victim.  So what does this say about the culture inside the SNP that the leaker had to act

Not sure ‘keep the Tories in government’ is quite the campaign slogan the SNP is looking for! https://t.co/9n4kwHMnon — mandy rhodes (@holyroodmandy) July 5, 2022 Team Sturgeon seems to be rooting for Boris Johnson to hang on, but it's not a good look to be backing the wrong horse - for all the wrong reasons.  Is Boris Johnson Toast?
