What on earth is going on at the Scottish Parliament? Transparency & scrutiny are vital not an inconvenience for politicians which can be brushed aside. If they don’t like it, perhaps they’re not suited to working in a democracy? This is completely unacceptable behaviour.
Zack, I appreciate hardly anybody within the Green Party is prepared to stand up to you when you are clearly wrong.
The Green Party supports the right of peaceful protest and NVDA. You know what "NV" stands for right?
Premeditated destruction of property on a grand scale. Unrepentant assault against an officer of the law, taking a literal sledgehammer to the back of a police officer resulting in spinal injury & ongoing occupational health & psychological trauma, these are not acts that politicians should be condoning but condemning. Instead you are championing their violent conduct.
Please don't kid yourself, even as Leader of the Green Party, that you can act as a law unto yourself. Whether council tax liability or convictions for perpetrators of gratuitous harm, the law does apply to all citizens equally.
Your continued betrayal & transgression of Green Party core values is concerning - as is your advocacy of violent tactics.
Oops. @ProfJMitchell responds (see quoted tweet) to Ross Greer’s suggestion in parliament that the Scottish Green amendment is closest to his proposals.
Living in a luxury house in London and sipping champagne on the book festival circuit is about as far away from serving a prison sentence as I can imagine. It’s worth remembering that thanks to Nicola Sturgeon vulnerable women in Scottish prisons are banged up with violent men.
🚨GREEN HYPOCRISY EXPOSED Carla Denyer (@carla_denyer), the Green MP for Bristol Central, has announced she needs time off to recover from "burnout" on doctor’s orders to protect her own health and wellbeing.
Meanwhile, actual women.... mothers, daughters, and concerned constituents... have been desperately trying to meet with her to raise legitimate fears about the erosion of female-only spaces. These women aren’t asking for the world.
They simply want to protect their safety, their daughters’ safety, and single-sex spaces that matter to their community.Instead of listening, MP Denyer has repeatedly mocked, dismissed, and belittled them — in interviews, in print, and across the media.
One rule for her. Another for the women she was elected to represent.
This is the Green Party in a nutshell: fragile elites who demand compassion for themselves while showing absolute contempt for the very women whose rights they’re undermining.
The @ScottishFA are going to have to explain why today's referee ended the game before the indicated time had finished. That's against the rules therefore it must have been abandoned due to the invasion? 🤔 Law 7 - The Duration of the Match | IFAB https://t.co/642A712NZz
Ally McCoist on Talksport:
I spoke to a former player 5 minutes ago (regarding the penalty decision last night)
"The integrity of the game has to come into question after that decision"
Never, in the history of football- or any sport- has there been such blatant & shameless cheating.
League is going to Hearts, 5 minutes stoppage played, not to worry Celtic’s officials deliver for them yet again.
Celtic have no shame; any other club would be embarrassed at the level of cheating. But not them.
The reprehensible Beaton delivers for his own again.
How is this man allowed to be a referee?
He literally doesn’t even try to hide it anymore.
It’s odd that people are making such a song and dance about Malcolm Offords assets, when Sturgeon, Swinney, Hamas Yousless, Mhari Black are all multi millionaires!
Strange when they have all only worked in politics, huh? 🤔😉
