Its a bit of an urban legend that was apparently true after the Second World War.

Probably paid for from the missing 600k that the also missing Mr Murrell is supposed to be getting investigated about.

This is such a myopic view. We've all said things that aren't acceptable by today's standards. Anyone telling you otherwise is a liar. What do we do, grass on each other and take the moral high ground until we get found out for being stupid and the economy grinds to halt because no one is employable? 

It's just so daft.

It's social media for you ,especially twitter, an absolute race to the bottom.

Warning: Unionists can learn cancel culture too

People on the nationalist left have tended to dominate Twitter in the past. Rangers supporters are often portrayed on the site as right wing bigots. But it looks as if the unionist right is now beginning to learn the darks art of cancel culture.

By Iain Macwhirter

full article

Last week two contributors to a Rangers football podcast, Heart and Hand, resigned after the Daily Record revealed historic tweets of an offensive and sectarian nature. What happened next has become a kind of morality tale for the era of cancel culture.

Rangers fans trawled the Twitter accounts of journalists who are or have been employed by the Daily Record and discovered a litany of sexist, racist, homophobic, misogynistic and sectarian tweets apparently from bylined hacks. The kind of things some men say in the pub - or used to say. The insults are familiar to anyone of my generation. But seeing them in cold print is still shocking.

The Record admitted these posts, said it takes any claims of discrimination “very seriously” and launched a “full investigation”. Nothing has been heard since. There have been no resignations from journalists or from the editors who employed them.

But there was some collateral damage. The comedian Janey Godley, the public face for the Scottish Government’s coronavirus campaign, has been a prolific Twitter user over the years and many of her offensive tweets also came to light.

Godley’s posts mainly involved language derogatory of homosexuals and people with mental or physical disabilities. There was also extremely lurid sexual abuse. Ms Godley appears to have a fixation with burns injuries and Chernobyl victims. She confessed to a catalogue of “horridly offensive, hurtful and shocking” tweets and has apologised.

It might seem hard to believe that someone using this language could remain the face of a government health information film. But Ms Godley has been vigorously defended by influential friends on social media who say she should be forgiven for her excessive language because she is a woman who has been the victim herself of social media abuse.

Ms Godley’s defenders are often people who would be the most enthusiastic advocates of action against the Rangers figures who started this whole chain of events. Such is the hypocritical morality of Twitter. We make honest mistakes in the heat of the moment; you are evil bigots who should be prosecuted for hate crime.

People on the nationalist left have tended to dominate Twitter in the past. Rangers supporters are often portrayed on the site as right wing bigots. But it looks as if the unionist right is now beginning to learn the darks art of cancel culture.

 

Spot on article by MacWhirter, seems like he can see Godleys defenders for what they are.

Jesus christ reading the replies on her twitter feed is unreal 95% of them are sticking up for her.

It's like when she's not making shite grovelling videos she's making new twitter accounts to reply to her own tweets

Been reading the replies on twitter as well - you'd think she was a cross between Florence Nightingale and Mother Terisa - fuckin embarrassing

No chance she would have got the advert if she still was. They used to accuse us of jobs for the boys.

I was just thinking some things said years ago were acceptable but aren't now but you wouldn't go back to contest an offside decision 10 years ago because the rules have changed.

Then I remembered who we are talking about....

Yes, she was and probably still is but she plays to a certain element of society and rewarded for it.

If her getting her comeuppance is affecting you that much then go to another topic and leave this one for the rest of us to enjoy. Every post so far by you is about how you don’t agree with what’s happening to the bitch and it’s pathetic.
