A paltry one in five people in Scotland are in favour of retaining the leftist government’s draconian new speech law as Humza Yousaf faces the prospect of being removed from power at the general election.
A survey conducted by the FindOutNow polling firm has found that just 21 per cent of the Scottish public support the Hate Crime and Public Order (Scotland) Act 2021, which came into force on Monday, criminalising the “stirring up hatred” against several protected classes of people with up to seven years in prison.

“Yousaf is a POS and needs to be voted out”
In the world today, it seems POS is a required trait in order to be elected.

Historically, the Scots, Irish, and Scots-Irish don’t take kindly to being pushed around. Why they elected this ringpiece in the first place is beyond me. He be gone.

I recently watched a speech by either this guy or one of his fellow travellers in the Scottish parliament, complaining about how seemingly every leading position in the bureaucracy and other civil service jobs were all filled with white people.
Scotland is still over 95% white, so what can you expect?
Seriously, who is the racist here?

Politicians are experts at finding excuses for why they need more power. Most of them went into politics in the first place because they consider themselves so smart and wise they they should be making the rules for the rest of us. The truly smart ones know it is just a racket and march behind some party dogma in order to make themselves rich with little effort.
No surprise they make up a law punishing anybody who notices.

They will be very surprised when they cannot unseat him. Predict election lies.

“ Humza Yousaf”
A fine Scottish name. No doubt he can trace his lineage back centuries.

These laws are not put in place because the people want them. They are put in place to control the people.

Speaking out against hate speech laws is evidently hate speech.

My wife’s and my Scot DNA is 30%.
Our families were like the real Scots you cited above.

More precisely, his party, the SNP, needs to be voted out. The Scots (except for his local constituency) didn’t elect him, his party in the Scottish Parliament elected him. The people of America didn’t vote Nancy Pelosi Speaker of the House, the democrats in the House elected her.

People who are not POS, don’t want to get involved in politics.

I’ve seen videos of him. I’m shocked by how Scottish he sounds. It’s a bit freaky actually.
