Last night I received this avowedly anti-Semitic tweet. I reported the account to @Twitter who said there was nothing wrong with it. And that is the issue right there. If twitter thinks this kind of thing is just fine, why shouldn’t main stream political parties let it pass too?

In Hungary's Nógrád County about one-fifth of families are Romani but four-fifths of kids in care are Roma. Why? Discrimination. NGOs can sue in our name in Hungary for this and that is what we did just before xmas. #terrnipe

Here’s an ignoramus who thinks all EU nationals come here to pick strawberries. My grandparents moved to Glasgow in the 50s. Over 5 decades they opened multiple small restaurants and employed 100+ Scots. This is about expanding our tax-base so that in 30yrs we can afford an NHS. https://t.co/xnopyM4FOR

Very good piece. I have a book chapter coming out in July on this very issue, with a particular focus on how Roma are racialised through place and cynical connection forged to 'Sturgeon's slums'. https://t.co/rIjAaJrmmq

Scotland’s population projections show there is an ‘overwhelming case’ for Scotland to have powers to tailor its own #migration policy, @FionaHyslop has said. New @scotgov discussion paper looks at the impact of falling migration on Scotland’s economy: https://t.co/cv8fqYxR6G

Pictures like this sometimes make me wonder what century we are living in and when we lost our sense of humanity. https://t.co/dAv5Rj8v9w
