It was a stunt, and unfortunately, they’ve been given the exposure for it; it should’ve been ignored. Gives rise to the likes of this rum chap who now wants Holyrood shut down. And has a blue tick because he’s paid for it. Utterly desolate. I'm genuinely not sure "abolish the devolution Scottish people voted for, because I don't like those the Scottish people voted for to staff it in the current term" is the look he thought it was initially....... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawson Park Boy Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 Can’t stand any of those political badges, scarves, colours, pinholes, whatever. Football colours are fine for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bennett Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 Blind woman branded 'transphobic' for raising guide dog issues around Dundee street art The issue of Dundee street art obstructing access for guide dogs has resulted in accusations of transphobia, all because the concerned citizen stated the colours of the stripes A Dundee resident who walks with a guide dog has complained about roads being obstructed by art projects featuring blue and pink stripes but has been branded 'transphobic' for pointing it out. Social media user Ash, 49, said her pup Rusty would not cross a section of the road at Union Street near the top of the High Street because the markings were too confusing. The labrador interpreted the markings as a zebra crossing but the colours and positioning were different so he diverted. The council's artistic efforts have been slated for compromising the rights of disabled people while online comments have seen Ash branded a transphobe for stating the colours are blue and pink – the same as the trans flag.

That’s from the Express, and predictably enough it was the exact opposite that happened. Here’s the lady who made the complaint - notice ‘women won’t wheesht’ in the bio. This lands up with noted transphobe Baroness (Emma) Nicholson who RTs it and the winged monkeys set sail. . ‘Gender Critical’ Twitter starts screeching at the top of its voice. Guide Dogs Scotland attempt to calm the situation and get called Hitler. Thread in full here. Wear a helmet. Although it is heartening to see the actual reaction of the trans community is abject hilarity. God knows they could be doing with a giggle when all that needs to happen for a hit piece to make national press is some transphobic roaster making up absolute horse.
