SNP Sex Pest Apology Rejected - No Wonder!

No wonder the young man at the centre of the Patrick Grady sex pest scandal has rejected the SNP's apology.

Instead of being taken seriously and his complaint investigated swiftly, things were allowed to drag on for six years - during which time he was 'sent to Coventry' and blackballed by the SNP. 

SNP - Victim Blaming Mentality (June 20, 2022)

The Daily Record's front page hit the nail on its head - the young victim of sexual harassment by a senior SNP MP has been bullied and punished by the party for speaking out.

A Shameful and Serious Business (June 15, 2022)

The irony is that Patrick Grady's punishment (a two day suspension) has been imposed by Westminster - not by the SNP which looked the other way while a young and junior member of staff was being harassed by a senior Glasgow MP.

The victim is now claiming he has been punished and 'sent to Coventry' by the SNP for raising his complaint.

So what do Nicola Sturgeon and Ian Blackford have to say because they're both very quick to condemn unacceptable  behaviour in rival parties?



SNP Harassment Victim - 'Sent To Coventry' (June 15, 2022)

Fair comment from Valentina.

The SNP turned a blind eye to this affair and ignored its duty of care to a young staff member.

The staff member subsequently complained that he was punished and ‘sent to Coventry’ by the SNP for raising a complaint against the party's former chief whip, Patrick Grady.

Punishing someone who raises a complaint is an extraordinary way for any organisation to behave, but that's exactly what an SNP staff member says happened to him - after alleging he was harassed by two SNP MPs



To Send To Coventry (April 29, 2021)

I've just realised that not everyone is familiar with the term 'sent to Coventry' which I used in a blog post earlier today.

So it means to punish someone for stepping out of line and it's often associated with bullying through exclusion and intimidation instead of using violence.

 



SNP Shun Staffer After Harassment Complaints (19/04/21)

An SNP employee claims he's been shunned and ‘sent to Coventry’ after making complaints of sexual harassment against two SNP MPs. 

These are very serious allegations, especially after the farcical handling of harassment complaints by Nicola Sturgeon and the Scottish Government.

LGB Rights - Hijacked By Intolerant Zealots!

Now that we're a month away from the month formerly known as June, we can think about what's happened. Given the new events being rolled out in London, Manchester and across the States, I think this sums up the *erm* transition of Pride.

SNP - Conspiracy of Silence

Image
So here's the issue - two Glasgow MSPs (Nicola Sturgeon and Humza Yousaf) have been asked a reasonable question about their use of public money to employ two SNP councillors who already have full-time, salaried jobs as senior elected members of Glasgow City Council.   But these two public servants (both long-serving ministers) refuse to answer, so what to do next? One regular reader suggests raising the matter on the floor of the Scottish Parliament which is a good idea, but requires an MSP who's prepared to put down a written question for Scottish Ministers to answer. So here's a list of activities which will help shine a light on what has been going on because as Lord Nolan once said apropos driving up standards in public life - 'daylight is the best disinfectant'. Write to the leader of Glasgow City Council Write to the Chief Executive of Glasgow City Council Write to all elected members in Glasgow City Council Write to the party leaders in Glasgow City Council W
