No defence is required. She’s being accused of lying about something when it was actually a mistake by a reporter in their article. Some bizarrely even think she’s somehow complicit because she hasn’t rung the reporter up to tell them.🤣 There’s plenty of valid reasons to have a go at her without making stuff up.

Whether or not Scotland is institutionally racist can be debated - it certainly was and there's still racism around. Some on here, I suspect. However, this common assertion that Humza hates whites is utter BS. Strange how some white men who are apparenlty against "pandering to minorities" and being "woke" are so keen to portray themselves as victims when a black guy attains a position of power. Attack him on his political performance by all means but don't conjur up claims of racism when one guy gives his experiences. As to Wings - he's an utter fandan. Also thinks football fans are scum apparently and blamed Hillsborough on the Liverpool fans. Despite the outcome of a lengthy enquiry, that taudry wee incel knows better.

lost in space Posted December 19, 2024 Share Posted December 19, 2024 ANGELA CONSTANCE - is she the worst politician at Holyrood??? Has to be. Saw her questioned last night on the pyrotechnics at the cup final - she was asked what she, as Justice Minister, what she was going to do. I dont think English is her first language to be fair - but she just spoke gibberish. Something about speaking to her business partners about it. As usual - took no responsibility and has not the first idea on what to do. How did this person ever get to be a minister? And then this morning - front page about her mis-use of an official car. Now she know what happened with the Health Minister (Gray?) - and how he had to apologise. She obviously couldnt give a ****. Not the biggest offence in the world - but shows her attitude - and the attitude of SNP politicians. Dont know who she supports but looks a bit "Celticy".
