SNP - Taking The Piste!

Image
The Sunday Mail reports that SNP's deputy first minister Shona Robison flew out to the ski resort of Chamonix for Christmas - just days after raising taxes and announcing big cuts in public services.  https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/scottish-news/shameless-shona-robison-jetted-luxury-31774713

The SNP and Self-ID

Image
Nicola Sturgeon clarifies matters. pic.twitter.com/Y9TqYmCB29 — The State Media (@The_StateMedia) January 30, 2023 Confused by the SNP's stance on self-ID? You soon will be after watching Nicola Sturgeon tying herself in knots trying to explain/defend party policy!   

Parliamentary Pests

Image
  I came across this headline from 'Politics Home' and thought to myself - why can't the Scottish Parliament get its act together and rid itself of parliamentary pests? Commons Has Spent Over £50,000 Ridding Parliament Of Pests

Trans Toddlers and Stonewall

Image
Remember when #Stonewall tried to pave the way for indoctrination in the kindergartens & we all said FUCK NO. This is on you Nancy. https://t.co/v82zkzDiCb pic.twitter.com/dX3z3MDHt7 — lorna🍒 (@Lorna9100M) September 21, 2023 The lobbying group Stonewall managed to persuade SNP ministers to drop the word 'mother' from the Scottish Government's maternity policy. Next up - Stonewall supports the absurd notion that 2-year old toddlers can have a trans identity.

Gaza - Give Peace A Chance!

Image
David Aaronovitch has an interesting Substack piece in which he lists his 'demands' for giving peace a chance in Gaza and the Middle East.

Animal Misgendering - The Next Big Thing?

Image
It’s amazing to think there are people who actually think this that live amongst us pic.twitter.com/AjxEyqVshW — Norm (@NormanSufrin) December 28, 2023 Every day brings some new insight into the madness of transgenderism which is helping to turn the public opinion against absurdities like self-ID and now - unbelievably -  misgendering someone's pet!  

What Is A Man, Or A Woman - Makes Yer Think, Eh?

Image
But what if you survived the accident, got a nasty infection went back to hospital, and were put in an induced coma, then when you woke up you found they'd transplanted your head onto a man's body? What about that? Makes yer think, eh? — Kisa (@KisaLeSnark) December 28, 2023 Now this made me laugh and think at the same time. I thought to myself - John Bobbitt was still a man even after Lorena sliced his penis off and threw it out of her car window!  

Jimmy Mutter - An Extraordinary Life

Image
I attended the funeral of a dear old friend earlier today - Jimmy Mutter, a former Labour councillor in Glasgow whom I first met through COSLA, the collective voice of Scotland's councils. Jimmy represented the employers' side of the negotiating machinery and I was secretary of the trade union side - we had many disagreements and fierce arguments in our time, but always remained on good personal terms. Jimmy was born in the Gorbals and lived there most of his life - he worked in the shipyards before joining the merchant navy (just like my own dad) and travelled the world before returning to Glasgow and settling down. Councillor Mutter started his political career in Glasgow by winning a seat for Labour in 1984 - unlike other politicians I could mention Jimmy actually lived in the area he represented and did so with great distinction for the next 23 years.  Although a Labour man through and through Cllr Mutter was no ideologue - Jimmy had a great sense of humour and was far more

More Trans Toddler Madness

Image
She sounds like a complete and total madwoman but then you realize that ripping out barrettes is all there is to any of this and that she's just more open about it than most. https://t.co/EIdFb8VeQk — Eliza Mondegreen (@elizamondegreen) December 28, 2023 The bad news is that if your toddler  unsnaps his 'onesie' to 'make a dress' - you may have no choice but to pump him full of powerful drugs and cut off his penis. 

SNP - Over-Promising and Under-Delivering

Image
The Scottish Sun's leaders on the Floody Disgrace and the SNP's indy spending pic.twitter.com/2JgaqEbaxd — Conor Matchett (@conor_matchett) December 29, 2023 The SNP are taking a well-deserved public pounding over yet another example of ministers taking their eye 'off the ball' over new flood defences - half the projects are running late and costs have soared from £300m to almost £1billion.

Trans Rights Are Pharma Rights

Image
Please make this go viral 🙏👏👏👏 #TransRightsArePharmaRights https://t.co/48FvK4gLRS — MrMenno 🏳️‍🌈🎶 (@MrMennoTweets) December 9, 2023 Great, hard-hitting video which pokes fun at trans zealots and their nonsense claims about 'protecting kids' and self-ID .   #TransRightsArePharmaRights

What A Waste!

Image
Ministers spend £3.5m on stalled campaign for independence ➡ https://t.co/k1O0Yf2a9O pic.twitter.com/2wsaVENLhD — The Herald (@heraldscotland) December 29, 2023 Nicola Sturgeon promised another Indyref in October 2023 which everyone, including Humza Yousaf, knew was never going to happen . Yet the SNP spend £3.5 million on a pointless wild goose chase when these public funds could have gone to other important causes.  

Self-ID - Divisive and Disastrous

Image
"Alex Salmond has said the SNP’s gender reforms were the “worst legislation in the history of devolution” which divided the country and alienated many women from politics." https://t.co/P43qmBivaL — For Women Scotland (@ForWomenScot) December 21, 2023 Fair comment from Alex Salmond on the SNP's gender reforms.  I think it's fair to say that if Humza & Co had put the same effort into tackling other issues, Scotland might not still be the drug deaths capital of Europe.

Women's Sport, Men and Fair Competition

Image
Of course Lia Thomas is a fully intact straight man. The whole trans thing is a total scam, in his case he stole prizes and awards from women. These men should all be on mugshots. — judy y (@Averyflash) December 27, 2023 Ahem pic.twitter.com/QPWOYSr3q8 — Mark Irvine (@Mark1957) December 28, 2023 Fair comment from Judy Y on the participation of men in women's sport - also known as organised cheating which makes a mockery of fair competition, of course. 

Babies, Toddlers and Trans Cults

Image
Just in case anyone thinks the Ehrensaft story is exaggerated, here's the video. She's a fucking lunatic https://t.co/5427lng3d8 — Graham Linehan (@Glinner) December 28, 2023 Fair comment from Graham Linehan. Trans zealots who insist that babies and toddlers are 'born in the wrong bodies' are deadly serious - despite what they say the behave like members of a deranged cult. 

Humza and Hamas

Image
Humza Yousaf has been soft on Hamas from day one of the terrorist group launching its murderous attack on innocent Israeli citizens. A ceasefire makes no sense if Hamas does not free all the hostages who were kidnapped and taken to Gaza - nor can there be peace if Hamas continues to wage a barbaric war on Israeli civilians as it did on October 7.    A leading Scottish Muslim politician like Humza Yousaf and London's Muslim Mayor Sadiq Khan have had plenty to say about Israel, but say very little about Hamas and its brutal track record in Gaza where anyone who speaks out against its Islamist dictatorship is murdered or cowed into silence. So what does Humza Yousaf think - is Hamas the problem in Gaza or part of the solution and if the latter, how do its supporters justify murdering, raping and abducting civilians? Private Eye has a interesting report on the reality of Hamas and Gaza - attached for information.  

SNP - Game's A Bogey

Image
Alex Massie reflects on a truly miserable 'Year of the Camper Van' for the SNP and has a telling assessment of the party's new leader, Humza Yousaf. "If Sturgeon could not address a crippled health service or an education system in palpable decline, why should anyone expect Yousaf to make a better fist of doing so? "He has been first minister for nine months and you would be hard pressed to point to a single notable achievement he can call his own since he moved into Bute House.  "I t seems worth observing that the subject upon which he has, for understandable personal reasons, been most voluble — the war in Gaza — is also one for which he has precisely no responsibility and no realistic prospect of influencing." https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/after-the-snps-annus-horribilis-things-can-only-get-worse-wcg9fn28g After the SNP’s annus horribilis, things can only get — worse The decline began before Yousaf became leader but he has shown few signs of bein

Hamas - Sadists, Murderers, Rapists and Kidnappers

Image
New footage from the Nova music festival!! It breaks my heart every time I see these beautiful young people dancing, and having a good time, knowing that most of them were viciously murdered or kidnapped only minutes later 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 pic.twitter.com/T8myGgRbnN — REAL JEW (@THEREALJEW613) December 28, 2023 Shocking to think that just minutes after this video was recorded hundreds of innocent young Israelis at a music festival in southern Israel were murdered in cold-blood. Many were shot in the back while fleeing for their lives - h undreds of others were wounded, raped or kidnapped  before being spirited back into Gaza as hostages. Hamas calls these cowardly sadists 'freedom fighters'.  

Glasgow Is A Dumper's Paradise!

Image
Glasgow City Council encourages citizens to phone a special hotline to bring Dumb Dumpers to book, but if you call 0845 230 4090 a recorded message says you've dialled 'an incorrect number'. I reported this farce to the SNP/Green led Glasgow City Council over a year ago. Glasgow City Council - You Cannot Be Serious! ( November 18, 2022 ) Glasgow City Council's 'Dumb Dumper's hotline (0845 230 4090) for reporting fly-tipping is still not operating several months after I first shared the news on my blog. I also reported the non-existent hotline to my local Glasgow councillors - on which more to follow soon. But what does this say about how seriously the Council is taking the issue? Dumb Dumpers, Dumb Hotlines and Glasgow Council ( July 27, 2022 ) When I discovered that Glasgow Council's 'dumb dumpers' hotline didn't even work the thought that went through my head was: How come one of the city's senior councillors didn't realise this was all

Glasgow Is A Dump

Image
Glasgow City Council has spent a small fortune over the introduction of its LEZ (Low Emission Zone) scheme for motorists. But Scotland's largest council still can't get to grips with people who turn the city into a dump on a daily basis - this unsightly pile of trash has been sitting on Queens Crescent since before Christmas! Glasgow's Big Bin Problem - Queens Crescent ( August 15, 2022 ) Queens Crescent is just round the corner from St George's Cross subway station. The area could do with a lot more than just a 'wee spruce up' and was like this for days before the picture was taken. What Glasgow needs is more bins, bigger bins and/or more frequently emptied bins.  Glasgow's Big Bin Problem - St George's Cross ( August 03, 2022 ) Here's the kind of awful mess that results when people leave household rubbish which includes food waste beside Glasgow City Council bins. No doubt the bag/s involved were ripped open by a fox or seagulls, but what an eyesor
