Violence Against Women and Girls

SNP leader of Glasgow City Council talks tough about the safety of women and girls, but SNP politicians have had nothing to say about the failure of the criminal justice system to protect women and girls - from alleged and convicted rapists - via the Scottish courts.  

SNP - Soft On Crime, Soft On Serial Rapists (July 16, 2023)

Four courageous young women - Hannah McLaughlan, Jennifer McCann, Holly Prowse and Hannah Reid - waived their rights to anonymity to highlight the case of a dangerous serial rapist who has been given a reduced sentence due to the offender being under 26.

Hannah Reid, 23, tweeted: “He raped me from the ages of 15 to 17. Went on to rape a further four victims. We have a life sentence of trauma and PTSD. He can’t be rehabilitated.”

Logan Doig (23) was found guilty of no less than 12 serious offences after a lengthy trial and has been sentenced to just 9.5 years in prison - reduced from 12.5 years because of his age.

The 16-year-old male who attacked 14-year-old Kaitlyn Ward knew exactly what he was doing:

“Him and some of his friends stole my phone and one of my friend’s phones and threw them into a river so I couldn’t phone the police or my mum.”

Scotland's criminal justice system is a sick joke.

How can a 16-year-old male not be prosecuted for such a serious crime as rape?

Kaitlyn Ward was 14 at the time she was attacked and is rightly critical of Scotland's criminal justice system:

“This has left me feeling like there isn’t a justice system at all. It was a complete kick in the teeth and made me think if a crime is going to happen to me again is there any point in reporting it?"

Strangely Scotland's SNP/Green led government say that 16-year-old males are old and mature enough to change their sex under the law via a hotly contested process of self-identification. 

The SNP/Greens should be ashamed of themselves.

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. H/T @LGBNOW pic.twitter.com/HL87yIXXHg — Fred Sargeant (@FredSargeant) August 2, 2023 No doubt about it - the once proud campaign in support of lesbian and gay rights has been hijacked by intolerant trans zealots!

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 "

SNP - Conspiracy of Silence

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
