McCoist is a very smart, intelligent man who knows exactly the buttons to press to keep onside with base camp but also knows exactly how to keep the paymasters onside.
Condemning the racism, sectarianism and extreme English Nationalism would alienate both bases so you will never hear that in a million years.
Listen to anything he says around football's edges and you can see he knows exactly what he is doing and is very clever with it.
It's a bit like your Hibs fan who claims his Sevco mate "is a good guy no like aww the rest" as not scratching to deep is a much safer option because you know exactly what you will find but prefer not to.

She had a go at someone saying the Nazis burnt trans books and destroyed research, which is a historical fact they did, in the 1933 burning of the contents of the Instute for Sexology (8 years prior to the beginning of the holocaust, which is why I never referred to her as that). She used the old 'do your research' line, and was rightly called on it, and was then advised she should maybe also do some research before commenting.

He said this. Never once said he was going to sing a song, or anything regarding sectarianism.

During the game at ER on Saturday, thousands of fans from both sides will be hurling abuse at each other, players and the referee just as they will at every other Premiership game on Saturday and I may be one of them. Does that make me any different from McCoist?

Not sure if the link works, trying to do it on my phone but explained really well here by a professor of law. But it appears that some folk don't want to listen to a professor of law but they will believe the daily record and Ally McCoist. And to say the police don't understand it is laughable. They understand it enough to have dismissed the various bull**** reports so far, including the Rowling one.

Well done for being so considered with your initial post, but I never said that you said she was a holocaust denier? What I quoted referred to on-line trans activist bullies who have of course called her a holocaust denier and much more.
The quote also said "I’m familiar with such activists’ assertions that transgender people have been uniquely persecuted and oppressed throughout history, but claims that trans people were ‘the first targets’ of the Nazis – a claim I refuted on X, and which led to these accusations – and that I ‘uphold [Nazi] ideology around gender’ is a new low".
I'm not aware of evidence to support any claim that Rowling has denied Nazi war crimes though.Last edited by superfurryhibby; 05-04-2024 at 04:39 PM.

He’s been called a hun. If he perceives that as abuse and he beliefs he has been called that due to his background, then he can report as a crime.

I certainly know people who feel it is, and if they interpret it as that, it can be reported as a hate crime.

If the victim felt they were called a hun due to their background(religious in this case) then it can be considered as a hate crime.
It’ll likely go nowhere, but it meets the criteria of a hate crime.

I’ve lived in Yorkshire for 24 years now and have not really followed the new law and what it will mean north of the border, but singing sectarian songs at football matches was already illegal. People have been done for it. It’s just that 99.999999 per of the time it’s ignored. Not sure what the new law brings to the party.
