Dear All
The list of people being smeared by members
of the Scottish National Party continues to grow and grow and grow.
Support for Scottish independence has
totally collapsed.
As the SNP leadership continues to panic
and try and find a way forward, these outbursts will continue to blow up in their
faces.
You can smell the fear!
Most people think that SNP smearing is
people down at the bottom of the party, but as we have seen time and time
again, we find that these people are also connected to Alex Salmond and Nicola
Sturgeon.
Recently we seen in the public domain, a
story about John Swinney alleged to have ‘unjustly slurred’ tax chiefs.
Alistair Beattie, convener of the Scottish
Valuation Appeals Committee (SVAC) forum, has taken umbrage at Mr Swinney’s
version of events, branding it “very selective and misleading”.
He added:
“I consider that your comments about my
colleagues and myself are an unjust slur and I hope you will withdraw and
apologise for them.”
And then Roseanna Cunningham who really
left people in no doubt that in the SNP under Alex Salmond and Nicola Sturgeon’s
leadership that the party at its core is a nasty vile poisonous clique.
Her efforts ran along these lines, having
got a bit pissed in the Holyrood bar, she wandered over to two Conservative
MSPs and told them that they were ‘evil Tories’. Not once but twice, just in
case they didn’t get the message first time round.
This lead to more bizarre scenes as her
party’s apologetic chief whip Joe FitzPatrick dragged her arse out the bar
before coming back to apologise.
Conservative MSP Mary Scanlon, 65:
“There was absolutely no call for it. She
broke into our private conversation out of nowhere to tell us how evil we are.”
She added:
“It was unnecessarily unpleasant.”
Yes, as the SNP and their supporters keep
saying they are running a “positive campaign”.
Enter Douglas Alexander, the Shadow Foreign
Secretary to the row over cybernattery, he accused the Nationalists of engaging
in the “systematic denigration of fellow Scots” by treating them as personal
“enemies” instead of political opponents.
In the SNP, the vicious clique around
Salmond and Sturgeon use their special brand of poison on other SNP members as well.
This could explain why so few people are willing to be SNP activists.
Alex Salmond’s legacy in Scottish politics
is the poison he allowed to spread since he became leader.
Douglas Alexander singled out what has been
described as the “hate-filled outpouring” directed at Susan Calman, a Scottish
comedian who received death threats and vile abuse on the internet after
mocking the referendum during a radio appearance.
However, Alexander did correctly pinpoint
that the “politics of personal destruction” extends beyond the army of so-called
‘Cybernats’, who dish out insults online, to the SNP’s most senior figures.
Recent a cybernat called Willie Fleming said
this to me:
“As opposed to yourself who wouldn't know
the truth if it skelped you on the arse with a banjo. #DivorcedFromReality”.
What did I say previously?
In regard to a Labour Activist called
Duncan, I said:
“you tell the truth too often to be an
attention seeker”.
Any comment is enough to prompt abuse from
what I dub ‘the Sons of Alex’.
Previously I also blogged on the contempt of
Scottish people by Angus Robertson who said that Unionist politicians think
“people in Scotland are uniquely poor, stupid and incapable of governing
themselves”!
Clumsy, ham fisted and nasty spinning to
create an air of poison in a vain attempt to try and win support for
independence, Scottish people aren’t as stupid as SNP MP Angus Robertson
obviously thinks.
Alexander
called Robertson’s attack “crass and offensive”, before warning:
“What should concern us even more is that
systematic denigration of fellow Scots is now directed at even those far beyond
party politics.”
On the Susan Calman incident, he added:
“This truly appalling episode is just the
latest example of the hate filled outpouring of the so-called ‘Cybernats’,
whose characteristic is general intolerance to everybody and anybody who does
not share their outlook.”
In what must be a joke, he called on Nationalists
to embrace the spirit of the Scottish Enlightenment and join a debate with
“vision, not viciousness” at its core.
Under Alex Salmond and Nicola Sturgeon’s leadership,
it isn’t jingle all the way, it pure 100% small minded poisoning by ‘the
clique’ surround them.
These people don’t know any different!
The SNP has reduced the debate over Scottish
independence to one of ‘us-versus-them’ because it fits into their mentality of
grudge, grievance and malcontent.
In an attempt to nullify the criticism the
SNP responded by saying via a spokesman that Scotland’s unpopular Deputy First
Minister Nicola Sturgeon had also been subjected to death threats and added a
website linked to Labour featured “appalling” remarks about Mr Salmond’s
father.
That is a bit like a rapist saying that his
crime isn’t as bad because other people rape as well; its called mitigation,
hardly a defence is it!
You would think that the SNP spinner would
try and present a case of innocent rather than guilty but I have a good excuse..... 'they are doing it as well'.
Today is 499 days to the political death of
Alex Salmond at the ballot box; he won’t be missed by Scotland or its people.
The Roseanna Cunningham incident shows how
deep intolerance runs in the Scottish National Party, in this case, the lid
flew off prompted by a few drinks!

I've still not seen any proof of this 'death threat'. Can you enlighten us George ?
Dear John
I understand that she hasn't gone to the Police.
If Nicola Sturgeon said anything to me, I would want third party proof from her.
I don't accept her word.

Willie Fleming is not right in the head. He is one of the most vile people I've ever come across in politics. Complete bampot.
Stalinist Nasty Party which dictates rather than listen
