This is a historical review of one of her shows - unbelievable that she’s been anywhere near government.

When I was a wean, we used to walk from Linwood to Johnstone for the swimming, keeping out the way of the manky fegs.

That Nigeria gag is a shocker. I cant work out what the joke is even supposed to be there.

It’s just done for the shock factor. There’s no humour imo. 
It crossed my mind the fallout if the Tory govt had promoted and endorsed a performer like her, it would have been nuclear.

Yeah its definitely just shock humour, but even shock humour can have a little bit of thought put into it. I'd say that Jimmy Carr and Frankie Boyle are (were in the case of Boyle) shock comedians, but they still wrote jokes that you coukd tell had a bit of effort. 

It goes back to what I said earlier: none of this is about what is being said, its all about who is saying it. The whole thing has no principle other than " fuck the guy I don't like".

Peter Tobin murdered the teenage girl  Vicky Hamilton and buried her in his back garden 4 doors down from my mother-in-laws house in Bathgate!

How is that Nigeria joke or "poof" joke any different to what Jim Davidson or Roy Chubby Brown do and get lambasted for?

Alternatively don’t set up an alternative thread but also stop diverting this one.  I just think the discussion on here is too important to lose track of.

Because of their perceived voting attitude, look at a the “offensive comedians”, who have a certain political bent within and out-with Scotland, they are all a cabal who have each other’s back (I include the press in that) who all think they are entitled to say these things without reproach. 

What’s different here is what began as jealous journalists (who could not see their own anti-Protestant racism, bigotry, casual racism, homophobia and general distasteful comments blithely and condescendingly spouted without a thought for any group they aim at) yet if any person out-with their cabal said it they did “Offence Archeology “ to shut them down as a - fuck you, you are not one of us - were found out over a petty jealousy about being denied access to the Greatest Show in Town, which they could not hide their hate for.

Guess what the Greatest Show in Town has that title because of a fan base who finally said no more!

I agree with many on here there maybe one or two hacks lose their jobs, with Godley being the big fall, little will change otherwise, they will have to change their language around us and be more sneaky. There will handwringing grovelling apologies to all and sundry (with the exception of one team and its support) and I would bet “Building bridges” with the offended communities will be and I say this deliberately TROLLED out.

However it’s been fun seeing them hoisted by their own petard(s).

Its because this shit is so deeply ingrained in the mentality of the nationalists, and they're trying to spread their cancer into the general population and hopefully this is the start of the backlash but its been working for them for years. The general public views the Orange Order, Rangers and any other unionist groups negatively, even some Unionists feel that way.

The nationalist in Scotland and Ireland have been winning the propaganda war for decades. They've worked themselves into positions of power and they have a goal and are determined to reach it. They all back each other up or at least refuse to criticise each other unless forced to. While on the other hand the unionist parties and groups in Scotland are pretty much useless. David Murray allowed the campaign of negativity against us to run rampant. No one since him has really done anything to defend the fans. The Tories in Scotland are worthless. The only real power unionists have is the ballot box.

The best thing folk like us on here can do is just keep this fight back going and don't let it die off when the football comes back and the media try to let the story die. Let these cunts know this attitude that people blatantly have in Scotland that calling people of the PUL community huns or orange bastards isn't going to be something were gonnae put up with any more. Most of us have said for years that it doesn't offend us we just don't like the double standards and hypocrisy from these cunts who are clearly bigots based on their lack of any kind of real remorse for using these kind of terms while trying to get other people into bother for what they say.

Seems my opinion that the bitch deserves everything coming to her is more prevalent on here than your apologist let’s all get on together shite. 
why don’t you just go the full tonto and join the other wankers on her Twitter account who you seem to have more in common with than the majority on here.
