The former First Minister of Scotland admits that the riots in England over the last week have been concerning and he is now considering a future where he, his wife and three children move out of the UK and potentially away from Europe. Mr. Yousaf has been vocal in his criticism of the trouble in England over the last week and there are concerns it could spread to Scotland.

The former leader of the SNP insists he doesn’t want to leave but he’s starting to feel like he could be pushed out as he shared a story about his father, who had plans in case the family needed to go when he was younger. …

Pushed a hate crime bill on Scotland when he was “first minister” and it got him pushed out of power. Of course, he remains a crybaby and scaremonger.

If islamists are really out to destroy your culture, nation and people as the koran orders them to then in no way is it an unreasonable fear.

A phobia is an unwarranted or irrational fear. It is neither irrational nor unwarranted to fear a sociopolitical system masquerading as a religion, which demands that its adherents subjugate, enslave or kill you if you reject it. So there is no Islamophobia.

Deport that pig to Somalia. He is a racist POS who hates Scotland and Scots and wants to turn the UK in to an Islamic caliphate.

It seems that Muslims whine all the time. They kill 3,000 Americans, and then they whine about Islamophobia. Funny, but I don’t remember any Americans persecuting Muslims. Their fellow Muslims murder people in Great Britain, but they express no concern about that.
