Arguably though her remarks about "spazzies" are worse than anything Trump said about disabled. For the avoidance of doubt I dislike him even more than Janey. There's just something about her crap patter, bullying, hypocrisy, thin skin and constant need to be told that she's funny when she's anything but that really gets on my tits though. You said JG has made similar or worse racist remarks or has mocked the disabled , similar or worse than Trump.. ! What racist comments has she's made, especially worse than branding Mexicans rapists, or suggesting barring Muslims from entering the UK ? You noted the spazzie tweet. Is that racist or just a bad choice of words like ******, loony,thicko etc . And worse than impersonating a disabled reporter on a world stage ? You don't like her, cool. Salmond and his lawyer BTW. Where's he branded him a sex pest ? Can you post the video. Remember seeing it, but don't recall the direct accusation. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That's really going to encourage other women to come forward if they were sexually assaulted. 'Remember if the jury or judge thinks they are innocent even thought we think there's enough evidence to go to court, you'll be prosecuted if they are found not guilty.' Is that what you are saying should happen, or should've happened? That'll help getting tbe convictions for rape up from only 6%. You must be trolling or stupid to think that because they haven't been prosecuted Salmond is guilty. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

However, I don't want to repeat on here but her remarks about disabled people, Chernobyl victims, the traveller community and those from the Indian subcontinent (to name just a few) were absolutely despicable. As Nicola herself said "they were beyond the pale". If you think it's acceptable then fair enough but it says more about you. The fact that she "protested" against Trump for being a racist and has been exposed as making such horrific remarks herself just shows that she's a massive hypocrite as well as being chronically unfunny. Maybe you should ask one of the people who have discussed Salmond on this thread. Not quite sure why you're asking me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tazio Posted September 13 Share Posted September 13 The Trump “protest” wasn’t a protest, it was a self promotion exercise.

Spot on mate, it was all about her. The fact she still has it on her Twitter profile says it all. For me, the two worst things to happen to the world in the last few years are Trump and Covid. She has shamelessly tried to profit from both. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I like various types of humour from slapstick Laurel and Hardy to more sophisticated plays of Oscar Wilde / Noel Coward to Woody Allen angst on the big screen to crazy Leslie Neilson in “ the naked gun” films .

She would happily get hired by anyone if the money is there. This thread shouldn't be about who she supposedly supports, it's about her being a bully, using racist language and being as funny as a kick in the baws with an open toe plimsoll.

Some good points but a lot of it could have been written by Janey herself as it fits in with her creation myth. She claims to be a Rangers fan and part of her act is saying that a priest was allowed to **** her (Catholic) husband before she was. Rangers fans can't stand her but neither can Celtic fans but it's more to do with her piss poor "comedy" and her constant attention seeking than anything else. 31 minutes ago, felix said: Can't really get worked up enough about her to start a thread, or froth like the Sun, over her language tbh.
