Another piece, both interesting and amusing, about George Washington and his latest competitor for the title of global revolutionary: Humza Yousaf


It is becoming increasingly obvious that Humza Yousaf does not have any idea HOW to fix the problems left over by the collapse of the Sturgeon regime. He may want to be “Continuity” Humza, but he does not have the basic skills necessary to do the job Sturgeon helped him get. For her, it seems that he was just “Contiguity” Humza, always hovering about, trying to look like the poor man’s Yevgeny Prigozhin (see, for example, his racist rant here:  Short 04 - Hate Crime Bill (Humza's Bummer, 2020) - YouTube ) He wasn’t even very good at that, though the Broughty Ferry nursery case had its ominous echoes of darker conflicts.

 

Once again, Scotland is the victim of nationalist conceit. Here is a short piece, published today, which presents a yardstick against which Mr Yousaf might usefully be measured: https://thinkscotland.org/2023/06/no-legislation-without-representation-why-george-washington-was-no-humza-yousaf/

 

Enjoy!
