I would offer a slight correction to the above. If I recall correctly, it was a fair chunk of SNP voters that voted Leave. In my experience, a far lower percentage of members hold gammony views. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Granny Danger Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 Anyone reading what Salmond did and concluding he’s not sleazy is undoubtedly sleazy themselves. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carnoustie Young Guvnor Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 7 minutes ago, MixuFruit said: Is sex pest coded languade for sex criminal? Where has that been established? Sex pest is a libelous accusation. That went to court, a judge and jury decided he was nothing of the sort. You have absolutely nothing whatsoever to base that on except unfounded rumour and smears put out by people who wanted to damage him politically. I'm sure you consider yourself to be an intelligent, reasonable person, well such people don't throw around unfounded accusations, especially when they've been thoroughly investigated and found to be nonsense in court. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolute complete and utter shite. This is what the judge agreed happened, Salmond had one consensual fully clothed cuddle with a female colleague when both were slightly tipsy. Every single other accusation was thrown out. So you're full of shit, and an ignorant c**t, you haven't even read the details but are happy to throw out baseless nonsense allegations. I would imagine you're more sleazy than he is given that's the extent of his apparent 'sleaze'. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone who acts in appropriately and makes unwanted advances to women. Would you mind giving even one example from Alex Salmond's 70 years on earth that would make you label him a sex pest with no basis whatsoever? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbairn Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 Quote Taking the allegation that Mr Salmond had assaulted with intent to rape a civil servant as an example of the pattern, Mr Jackson said that the woman had sought and received an apology from the first minister over the incident. At the time “there was no thought of any kind of the police being involved”, he said. Mr Jackson acknowledged that Mr Salmond had acted inappropriately at times, but that was not the issue before the court. “I’m dealing not with whether he could have been a better man, because he certainly could have been . . . I am dealing with whether or not it is established that he was guilty of serious, sometimes very serious, criminal charges,” he said. https://www.ft.com/content/44603000-6ab1-11ea-800d-da70cff6e4d3 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carnoustie Young Guvnor Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 Just now, MixuFruit said: Why do you keep mentioning charges? We're talking about being a sex pest, as defined by you as someone who acts inappropriately and makes unwanted advances to women. Re: paywall it is not my fault you can't get past it with some extremely basic googling. Because we have no proof whatsoever that any of this has ever happened, all we know is his entire life was investigated incredibly thoroughly very recently and 700 people were interviewed. And a jury, majority female, found him innocent of all charges. So you have nothing whatsoever to base any allegation on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm perfectly happy to throw out allegations based on nothing whatsoever, since that seems to be the style here. So you're a beast, and nothing anyone can say, even you being charged with being a beast and acquitted of all charges, can change my opinion about that. How does it feel to be a beast? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
