Wings Over Scotland | A Little Respect


Readers, meet SNP councillor Fatima Joji.

As you possibly can see, she’s a part of the hyperwoke “Aberdeen Independence Motion” faction which lately took it upon itself to problem a “code of conduct” for independence campaigners, demanding that everybody within the Sure motion ought to debate issues:

“politely and positively always, with out rancour and bitterness […] in a respectful and tolerant method, agreeing to vary the place needed however at all times ­taking a zero-tolerance method to discrimination and prejudice.”

And right here’s Cllr Joji setting an instance final night time:

Hmm.

She mentioned it twice so no one misunderstood her.

The tweets had been a part of an prolonged tirade objecting to a tweet thread I’d posted about Tory management candidate Kemi Badenoch.

I hadn’t really “advocated” for Badenoch in any respect, after all. She’s a Conservative with Conservative values, most of which I discover repellent. Moderately, I’d identified that from a Tory viewpoint she was the good alternative for chief, as a result of she’d be a lot more durable for Keir Starmer to struggle than somebody like the present front-runner Penny Mordaunt.

(Some extent additionally made by many different folks, together with the luxurious Allison Bailey.)

Alert readers may have famous that each Cllr Joji and fellow wokester Miguel “William Saraband” Boronha insisted that Badenoch wasn’t an immigrant in any respect – one thing which may have come as stunning information to Badenoch, who was raised in Nigeria from the age of two weeks to maturity, whose first language is Nigerian, and who actually seems to see herself that method.

However Joji went a lot additional, repeatedly making the outrageous and totally unfounded allegation that I had, on unspecified events and in unspecified methods, personally “harassed nearly everybody within the [SNP] BAME Community for being BAME in politics”.

(Sadly it appears Cllr Joji hasn’t been holding herself updated with the most recent developments in woke Newspeak – the time period “BAME” is now thought to be “offensive”, “outdated”, “unhelpful” and “redundant” based on a report by the Fee on Race and Ethnic Disparities final yr. We belief she’ll give up herself promptly to the related authorities for re-education.)

So far as I can inform I’ve solely even HEARD of three folks within the SNP BAME Community, and I haven’t “harassed” any of them, not to mention finished so “for being BAME in politics”.

So naturally I challenged Cllr Joji to substantiate her offensive and defamatory declare.

She didn’t react very nicely to being requested to again up the disgraceful smear of racism, suggesting {that a} well mannered request for such proof was in actual fact “bullying”.

(I hadn’t talked about any type of authorized motion at any level.)

As a substitute she simply repeated the smear again and again.

So we can solely suppose that baselessly calling folks racists, bullies, harassers and “disgusting scum” who can “completely gtf” is what courses as “agreeing to vary in a respectful and tolerant method” within the new SNP.

We have now to be sincere with you, of us, it doesn’t fill us with optimism in regards to the state of an impartial Scotland. However then, with the SNP in cost, that’s not one thing we’re going to have to fret about any time quickly.
