Dirty Deals and the SNP

The reason Humza Yousaf is unable to distance himself from Nicola Sturgeon/Peter Murrell and stamp his authority on the party is that he owes everything to the 'old guard' of the SNP.

How else was Glasgow based Humza allowed to shift his base from one side of Scotland to another - when any fool could tell you it's not possible to represent the citizens of Glasgow Pollok effectively while living in Broughty Ferry, on the outskirts of Dundee. 

 



SNP - Making a Mockery of Local Democracy (June 05, 2023)

A kind reader (@WobbleyBØB) sent me this map which highlights the impossibility of Humza Yousaf representing the good citizens of Glasgow Pollok properly while living on the other side of Scotland - in Broughty Ferry on the outskirts of Dundee.

Clearly the SNP and Yousaf are having a laugh because this arrangement makes a mockery of 'local' democracy and is insulting to voters in Glasgow. 

 



Humza Yousaf - Making A Mockery Of Local Democracy (February 19, 2023)

As I was writing my post about Humza Yousaf living in Broughty Ferry while claiming to represent a constituency in Glasgow an old tune popped into my head.
So I thought I'd share it on the blog after changing a few of the original words:
It's a long way to Broughty Ferry
It's a long way to go.
It's a long way to Broughty Ferry
To the sweetest girl I know!

Goodbye Crookston Castle
Farewell to George Square!
It's a long long way to Broughty Ferry
But my heart's right there.
The SNP ought to be ashamed of this nonsense as it makes a complete mockery of local democracy

  

 



Is Humza Having A Laugh? (February 19, 2023)

Humza Yousaf has about as much chance of becoming Scotland's next First Minister as I have of playing centre forward for the national football team.

To my mind there's something very wrong with Humza's judgement not least because he lives in Broughty Ferry on the east coast of Scotland while claiming to represent the citizens of Pollok on the south west side of Glasgow - a 200 mile, 4 hour round trip.

Kentucky Fried Seagull

Hugh Fearnley Whitingstall is one of my favourite - and endearingly bonkers - TV chefs. The River Cottage chef has a some imaginative ideas for adding seagulls to the national diet - including a recipe for Kentucky Fried Seagull - would you believe. Here's what HFW has to say on the subjecy -  I think I'll contact Hugh - and ask if he'll join the TAPAS campaign. "Vermin with wings? Chicken of the sea? Or just an opportunity missed?" "First and foremost, before we all go on a mad seagull killing frenzy. In the U.K it is against the law to kill seagulls or interfere with their nests under the countryside and wildlife act. Some Councils are allowed to cull them however, and usually do this by either poisoning or shooting them. How to catch your seagull. Remember this is against the law in the U.K. I don't want the Men in Blue knocking at the door because someone said that Foodimum told them it was okay to catch and eat seagulls. It isn't... P

Hi. https://t.co/yuA2cY109e — Brian Spusk (@BrianSpanner1) December 16, 2022 Brian Spanner (aka Brian Spusk) shares a tweet from the SNP's chief executive and husband of SNP leader Nicola Sturgeon) criticising secretive party donations. What a complete hoot - these hypocrites have no shame! Peter Murrell  @PeterMurrell "Anonymous political donations supposed to be a thing of the past. Yet Scottish Tories pocketed £319,000 from secretive trust with no fixed address or known current trustees. @Conservatives legally responsible for checking true identity of donors before accepting cash. #DarkMoney "
