aaid Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 (edited) Latest one tonight is an absolute cracker. Lewis MacDonald, list MSP for the North East just tweeted claiming that he'd received racist abuse due to his English accent. He deleted the tweet straight away but unfortunately for him someone screen grabbed it. Given that he's not English and has a very distinctive North of Scotland accent, the only explanation can be that he's got a fake troll account and posted using his "official" one by mistake.

Alibi Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 After Reporting Scotland carry this as their lead story, he will no doubt resign as an MSP immediately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flure Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 Some commentators are suspecting that he's been trolling SNP and independence supporters using a fake account and has forgotten which account he was signed in to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ErsatzThistle Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 Lewis MacDonald always has had a reputation as being a lout and getting personal against SNP members. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could certainly believe that about him. Theres very decent people in every party* and then theres people like him. * Except UKIP and probably Lib Dems, the political prostitutes of the UK.

aaid Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 A staffer has put her hands up and taken responsibility. So apparently the only thing Lewis MacDonald has shown is that he's not capable of running his own Twitter account. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alibi Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 Labour are very good at coming up with thoroughly implausible explanations when they get caught lying and cheating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aaid Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 Looking at his account, it solely consists of retweet after retweet, so it looks like he has completely no control over it. This begs the question - Is this a parody account? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kumnio Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 Kezias tweet today that a hard brexit shouldnt lead to another referendum seems to have gone down well. She really is a fckin balloon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kumnio Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 The PPB was awful, but to be fair to the concept, if Dugdale, an utter idiot can get elected as leader of the North UK Labour, then anythings possible. I expect the next Michael Jordan to be a dwarf, Willie Rennie to win master mind and James Forrest to actually complete a fckin cross.

I didn't see anyone having a go at Derek McKay when he left his wife and kids and came out as gay. These are personal issues that have feck all to do with their professional ability.

Dunno if it's true or not but I did once hear it said anecdotally that Sarwar Jnr never really wanted to go into politics and that his old man pushed him into it.
