Bringing shame on Scotland ...

David Mundell MP is a good guy, an assiduous constituency MP and a brave man. He was jeered and threatened yesterday by an SNP mob when opening a food bank in his constituency. And nobody will convince me this was not organised.

As US comedian Jon Stewart asked Nicola Sturgeon a few weeks ago when she said the SNP were having an investigation into the three seats they didn't win (including David's),

"You think you're Saddam Hussein, you get 99%?"

It was funny on his show: this SNP mob are not funny, they are scary, because they are acting as if they actually believe they have a divine right to all the seats and anyone who opposes them is a traitor to Scotland.

They shouted at him "Traitor" and "Shame on you."

Well any decent human being watching the video of what happened would have been thinking "Shame on YOU!"

The members of that mob were a disgrace to Scotland.

As a person with some Scots ancestry myself, I cannot believe that most Scots really want to live in a country where being a politician from an opposition party means that you get treated like this.

This style of politics brings shame on Scotland and the SNP leadership will be bringing shame on themselves and on Scotland if they do not take steps to disavow it.

You can watch the video of what happened on the Daily Mail site at

And the SNP cannot claim that the contemptible behaviour of this mob was the action of individuals with no connection to their party: two of their branches have boasted on social media about being involved.

According to the Mail, the Dumfries East SNP branch also posted a link to a YouTube video of Mr Mundell at the event. The party tweeted:

'The Shaming of Mundell as he left via back door of food bank in Dumfries he'd just opened to shouts of "Shame on you".'


The West Dumfries branch of the SNP boasted on Facebook:
 
 'A great turnout to welcome Scotland's Viceroy, "Fluffy Munnel" in Dumfries today. Shame he scuttled off out the backdoor.'
 
They added that
 
'at least 100 folk' stood outside the foodbank with placards and chanted 'Tories Out!'. Mundell tried to sneak out the back door so we all piled round the back in hot pursuit chanting 'Shame on you'. Was brilliant! Lol!

I wonder how they would react if the Conservative or Labour parties arranged for a mob of 100 Conservative or Labour supporters to surround Nicola Sturgeon at a constituency function and behave towards her the way they behaved towards David Mundell. Somehow I don't think the SNP would be calling that "brilliant" or laughing out loud about it.

Its not just the SNP that are using this tactic, I have found its also used by many kippers. aparrently we cant stay in the single market for as long as "freedom of movement" is a must.

oddly they never say freedom of movement of what, as there are 4 basic freedoms of movement in the single market, being freedom of movement of 1. Goods, 2. Services, 3, People and 4, capital. (remember that last one when you go on about tax avoidance, its only using the rules of the single market to your advantage)

anyway I digress, so if freedom of movement is there then I am a traitor and many other things, though i have to say my favourite is "UKIP hating EU Paid scum" - that was a good one.

It's wrong whoever does it. Must say that if you are "UKIP hating EU paid scum" I shudder to think what they would call me, let alone an outright Europhile like Ken Clarke.
