@JackTheCat
Maybe Dross should concentrate more on getting *himself* to Holyrood to participate in votes, instead of refereeing fitba' matches. -
That footage of the former Scottish Tory leader being assaulted is as shocking as it is disgraceful.

I've been reminded of this. A friend who supports Falkirk and was at the match told me about it ...

CW: Scottish & UK Politics & Douglas Ross
"The news that Douglas Ross was resigning was inevitably met with confusion about which of his four jobs he would be stepping away from." - https://www.thenational.scot/politics/24378787.douglas-ross-now-resigned-unresigning-leader-tories/
How can he serve his constituents when he's basically a part-timer (on full pay though)?
Should never have been allowed. But then they didn't have to vote for him.

“Dear Doogie
I have your letter in front of me. It is now behind me, and I am flushing it away.
Regards
John” -
The odious #douglasRoss reminding us there exist far more unlikable scottish politicians than the current First Minister:
'We saw off Sturgeon and now Yousaf...now we work to remove this entire rotten SNP government from office."
I do hope there is a #holyrood election and we see how popular his Tories are.......
-
Well, #DouglasRoss has now said he will support a Labour-led motion of no confidence in the #snp government
Either he has information that Alba & Green will block it, or he is not a politician ruled by narrow calculation of self-interest, or he will contrive some non-attendence to ensure the no-confidence motion fails
A #holyrood election now would be bad news for the #toriesOut - coming on top of what are expected to be bad results in the local next week
-
Well, that’s all right—if everyone else can call Dross and his mates “the Toadies”.

Couldn’t shuffle a pack of cards. And it’s a pack with an excess of Jokers and Knaves.
“According to The Times, the media learned of some of Ross’s planned manoeuvres before the MSPs affected did.” 😂
“The reshuffle has seen loyalists to the current Tory leader moved into more influential positions, while those rumoured to be moving against him were shifted down the ladder.”
Ah, the Johnson Protocol in action.

What a tosser.
Or as Greens MSP Ross Greer put it: “You really are a nasty little bigot.”
Guess who?

Police Scotland is rightly being castigated today for institutional racism.
It is, however, sickening to see Scots Tory leader, try to score political points on this issue. If he really wishes to help defeat racism then perhaps he should look closer to home? And by that, I don't just mean his party.

Scotland Office director brushes off Independence Minister question
DOUGLAS Ross's questions were brushed off by the Scotland Office’s top civil servant as he sought to draw out criticism of the Minister for Independence.
The Scottish Tory leader was told that the appointment was "entirely" for Humza Yousaf's government to decide and not something that a neutral civil servant would comment on. -

Douglas Ross, assistant referee and Tory leader in Scotland.
He's not backward when it comes to making a fool of himself in public.

The First Minister’s final FMQs and Douglas Ross simply cannot rise to the occasion in any way at all. What a utterly pathetic little man. If Sarwar is smart he’ll completely change the tone

Wee Duggie Boy Ross's caught-on-mic utterance of "f**k's sake" in Parliament during a protest today is hilarious to me, not least because I like to imagine that's what almost every MSP in the chamber mutters each time they see that wee eejit stand up to bluster about something. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-scotland-politics-64827969
