Sarwar wars

-

Former labour leadership challenger Anas Sarwar has spoken of the racist and Is la mo phobic comments he received in his campaign–a senior councillor from his own party even said scotland wasn’ t ready to vote for a ‘Paki’. Anas sarwar: “i lost the leadership election so it must have been a race thing .” can’t possibly accept that the party membership view him as yet another self-serving, two-faced hypocrite.

Cynical_ to_the_core I don’ t have a lot of time for An as but i think his remarks on this are fair and well made. I also think the unnamed head of the Labour council group is accurate in saying that there are too many knuckle-dragging plum sin scotland who would lap se into the lazy and ignorant pas time of lumping all muslims into one laughably ill-informed generalisa­tion.

He can not name and shame, because that would mean his word against the alleged abuser, it would be his word against the other, and that would leave it open to some serious legal problems or character assassinat­ion attempts. anytime anyone accuses another person of some previous comment or action they best have proof, or they could face character assassinat­ion charges.

Erm...un less you area woman accusing am an of sexual misconduct( presently or in the past 30 years ), or a “journalist” doing the same. seems the only people not protected are males –white ones in particular.

Auld Reekie

Given that, despite their alleged misgivings, his party favoured a yorkshire man over a glaswegian, an as could probably do worse than crossing the floor and leaving Labour’ s sectarian bigots behind.
