NotThePars Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 This blog post from 2007 has cost Gillian Martin her Ministerial role - I like Gillian hugely and she's been a fantastic representative, but its hard to justify promoting her at the time after this - I thought her apology was fair enough. People brought up her massive support for Wings in the referendum as another strike against her but I’d wager his more dodgy transphobic articles have come after that period around the gender recognition stuff gathered pace. Laughing at Labour capitalising on this when their Shadow Minister for Inequalities opposes LGBT rights as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She dug herself a hole when she said the 2007 comments "didn't express her views then" tbh. A shame for such a talented MSP but, well, be careful! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excellent observations by Gillian who has found her spine, more of the vast majority will eventually stop silencing themselves and speak.

Labour went fron 26% in the polls to 40% in the GE in three months last year. This suggests to me that (i) polls are a load of shite (ii) the people that decide elections pay zero attention to politics other than during elections. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The SNP have no interest in calling another referendum. They purposefully killed it off with their RBS economic plan.
