‘Anti-White’ Scottish First Minister Quits After Disastrous ‘Hate Crime Law’

From Zero Hedge.

Scotland’s leader Humza Yousaf resigned on Monday, quitting as head of the pro-independence Scottish National Party (SNP) after scrapping a coalition agreement with Scotland’s Greens. He then failed to secure enough support to survive votes of no confidence against him expected later this week. 

Yousaf, born to Pakistani immigrants in Glasgow, built an infamous reputation as a woke activist politician going into the 2023 elections.  His rabid pro-immigration stance and consistent arguments in favor of DEI (Diversity, Equity and Inclusion) should have been a red flag to the Scottish public; however, with an increasingly progressive voting population Yousaf narrowly scored a victory.  Here is Humza in 2020, giving a speech admonishing the “whiteness” of the Scottish government.

At the beginning of 2024 the former First Minister sought to launch a pro-migrant propaganda campaign, claiming that open immigration policies lead to economic benefits for Scotland.  Of course, as with all politicians that make this assertion, he offered no concrete statistics to support the theory.

Beyond his insistence on going against the growing public opposition in Scotland to more migrants being allowed into the country, Yousaf’s biggest mistake was the passage of his now wildly unpopular “Hate Crime Act.”  The law which recently went into effect criminalized many forms of speech including criticism or skepticism of gender fluid theory and trans identity.  Misgendering and misuse of a trans person pronouns could now land a Scottish citizen in jail.

In response, the Scottish public flooded law enforcement agencies with fake calls accusing various trans activists and even political leaders of various hate crimes.  Police were so overwhelmed by the paperwork that any effort to enforce the law has ground to a halt.

As we have detailed again and again (herehere, and here), his hate-crime law was an utter disaster — that everyone saw coming — and before his resignation, just 29 per cent of Scottish National Party voters believe Yousaf is doing a good job, while 36 per cent think he has been poor in office.

Consequently, Yousaf’s popularity among his own voters is now minus seven, down from plus 14 in January, a massive drop.

As we have highlighted, under the new ‘hate crime’ legislation, anyone deemed to have been verbally ‘abusive’, in person or online, to a transgender person, including “insulting” them could be hit with a prison sentence of up to seven years.

As a reminder, Police received 8000 ‘hate crime’ complaints in just the first week of the law coming into play, equating to more than the annual total of all hate crime reports for all previous years.

The number is on course to out number the total of all other offences combined.

Calum Steele, the former general secretary of the Scottish Police Federation, declared that officers “are genuinely embarrassed,” adding that “They feel that the service and by extension [they] as individual police officers will catch some of the public brunt.”

The hate crime law received backlash from every corner of the UK, including from more liberal personalities like Harry Potter author JK Rowling.

…and now, he’s gone!

In an emotional address, Yousef said:

“While a route through this week’s motion of no confidence was absolutely possible, I am not willing to trade my values and principles or do deals with whomever simply for retaining power.

“Therefore, after spending the weekend reflecting on what is best for my party, for the government and for the country I lead I have concluded that repairing our relationship across the political divide can only be done with someone else at the helm.

“I have therefore informed the SNP’s national secretary of my intention to stand down as party leader and ask that she commences a leadership contest for my replacement as soon as possible.”

His decision comes two days after expressly denying that he would resign.

Alister Jack, the Scottish Secretary, said Humza Yousaf made the right decision to resign as Scotland’s First Minister. The Tory Cabinet minister said:

“It was the right thing for the First Minister to resign.

Humza Yousaf’s leadership has lurched from crisis to crisis from the very start, and he could not command the confidence of the Scottish Parliament.”

But, amid the political division in his coalition, as The Telegraph‘s Gordon Rayner says Humza Yousaf’s hate crime and trans laws will be his divisive legacy“.

In truth, the public never wanted Mr. Yousaf as First Minister: opinion polls before his election consistently showed that Kate Forbes, his socially conservative rival for the leadership, was far more popular with both SNP supporters and voters as a whole.

    Fraulein Eva from the land of cheese makers and greenhouses is the new rising star in the sky of hope. With this biblical forenqame, how could she not firmly believe that Christianity alone will not only save the world, but also Europe and Holland in particular?

    Or is it the other way around: isn’t the thing that is destroying Europe and distinguishing us from all other regions of the world actually the implanted misconception that we have to save the whole world because of the “original sin”, as a kind of ethnomasochistic self-destruction program?

    After all, the sacrifice of one’s own is the content of this religion. Didn’t Eve already seduce Adam into tasting from the tree of knowledge and being driven out of paradise by God for it? This time everything is to be different, there can be no doubt about that.

    Will the golden cross on Germany’s highest mountain save the world? The original can be viewed in the Werdenfels Museum. Bullet holes can be seen on the 173 y/o summit cross. American soldiers used it on 28. April 1945 as target practice.

    Or should there not have been a golden crescent there long ago? On travel brochures for Arab tourists, summit crosses are regularly retouched out of “consideration” so as not to offend the religious feelings of well-heeled visitors from the oil-rich Gulf.

    The relic, damaged by a storm, had to be restored and now shines in new/old splendor. This can probably be seen as a kind of substitute “symbolic act” that soothes the conscience while things have long since gone haywire down in the valley and throughout the entire lowlands.

    Another migrant murders in France: a 15-year-old is stabbed to death at the weekend by an Afghan known to the police. The perpetrator’s mother is also said to have slapped the dying man. Are the authorities declaring the foreigner not guilty?

    In the French town of Châteauroux, a 15-year-old teenager was stabbed to death by an Afghan immigrant at the weekend. According to reports in the daily newspaper Le Parisien, the crime is said to have taken place after a so-called rap battle.

    According to the report, an impromptu competition took place last Saturday in a wrecked car in the Saint-Denis district. The later victim, 15-year-old Matisse, and the suspect are said to have taken part in it. A fistfight is said to have broken out following some derisive remarks Matisse made about the suspect.

    The alleged perpetrator is said to have taken out a knife and stabbed the victim several times. The suspect’s mother is said to have rushed over. The role she played in the crime is still under investigation. According to eyewitnesses, she is said to have slapped Matisse, who was already lying on the floor. However, it may have been an attempt to revive him. The 37-year-old woman, like her son, is currently in custody.

    The suspect told the police that Matisse had insulted him as “bin Laden’s son” during the fight and asked him to go back to his country. He wanted to take revenge for these verbal attacks, reports the radio station RMC.

    Both the suspect and his mother are considered mentally unstable. Neighbors in their Saint-Denis neighborhood describe the woman as irascible and violent towards her husband and their five children. Some of the children are said to have been placed in foster homes in recent years.

    The suspected teenager is said to suffer from a personality disorder. According to an older brother, he has had to take medication for his mood swings for some time. He is already known to the police. In fact, on April 22, a few days before the crime, proceedings were initiated against him for predatory extortion.

    Most recently, the suspect is said to have attacked a man with four other youths a week before the crime. According to the victim’s statement, the group threatened him with a knife, took his cell phone and then tried to push him into a nearby lake. A witness apparently chased the gang of youths away by starting to film the incident with a cell phone.

    “I saw that something was wrong. A group of youths were standing around one person. I asked if there was a problem,” the witness told the France Bleu radio station. “Later, the man told me that he had been threatened with a knife, that his cell phone had been taken away and that they had tried to push him into the water.”

    Apparently the youths had lured the man into a trap. “The person told me that he had arranged to meet a girl after they had talked on a dating app. And when he arrived, there was this group of teenagers,” the witness reported.

    This is good news. Scotland should be run by Scottish people, not by Pakis. It’s irrelevant that Humza Yousaf was born in Scotland. His parents are Pakis – that makes him a Paki. He agitates for open borders and mass third-world immigration. That makes him an enemy alien.

    Why did Yousaf pass this new “hate crimes” law? I thought Muslims were against such degeneracy as transsexualism. I guess not, when it’s for Scotland. For White countries, enemy aliens like Yousaf promote decadence and social decay.

    A simple question of logic: a woman who knows that her partner is in debt to her would bring up this fact for every little thing. A very bad starting position for the humiliated servant. A man must therefore act from a position of strength in order to be able to “afford” a woman at all. Anything else is self-deprecation on the part of dreamers who have existed for years at the mercy of the “divas” who feed them.

    The woman factor in a man’s life can destroy his existence, unfortunately that’s exactly how society has set the course. Of course, this is exactly as intended, as it necessarily leads to the destruction of society. It can take everything away from you, your possessions, your children, your reputation.

    One option to free yourself from this is to give up any efforts to “win the hearts of the ladies” for good. This, in turn, is a good prerequisite for retaining women, as they usually only do this with commitment phobes.

    Wanting to eliminate this “phobia” in you and overcome it at some point is a permanent challenge for them, which they, as born masochists, are all too happy to give in to. And let’s be honest: they don’t want to have you in their hands. Better spare them this painful fate Women want to admire men rather than pity them. It has always been that way and it will always be that way. That is the course of nature, the earth and life in general.

    Let’s make it possible for them to fulfill this desire, because that is the only true “love”. Those who love their children do not treat each other like “partners” (i.e. adults). And if you love your wife, you don’t treat her like an equal business partner with whom you have to negotiate every detail.

    Many “liberal” indoctrinated “men” fall for this fatal basic fallacy and thereby unwittingly and unwillingly destroy the existence of their family and their offspring. Men must therefore keep in mind that women have less logic than emotion.

    Women want to be reassured of their commitment, but there must always be an uncertainty factor to keep her with you: the threat that she is not the only one in the world. Women “understand” this very well and test it again and again by taking you out in public to see how other women react to their “prey”.

    Let them naively believe that they have conquered you and not the other way around! But keep up the threat and play this “game” willingly, patiently and challengingly. You hold the strings in your hand. But only if you could do without her “offer” at any time without suffering a total loss. Women want a man who is also desired by other women at all times.

    This all sounds very smart-aleck, and yet it is ancient wisdom that our forefathers instinctively knew, internalized and passed on to their sons. The initiation rite was once necessary for this, the introduction of the young man into the world of men, the cutting of the (also emotional) umbilical cord and learning to endure pain without complaining.

    For former mama’s boys, it soon turns out that their supposed pain is not for the woman, but for themselves. Enduring the fear of being alone. Self-pity in disguise. Just to avoid admitting this to themselves, i.e. to dare to take the leap into freedom, independence and self-reliance, they even go so far as to pander to a loveless tyrant and forfeit their entire dignity in complete self-abandonment.

    Then they have not only lost themselves, but also this oh so “inestimable” woman. But the loss of self is far more serious, because undamaged self-esteem is the prerequisite for leading an independent life as a sexually successful man. They are not looking for a wife, not a partner, but a mom they can adore and admire and kneel before as they once did before their own as their little darlings. Ridiculous, worthy of being spat at.

    White separatists are winning a delayed miniature war of secession. If this sets a precedent, it would be a hopeful sign. However, I doubt how the separation can be legally maintained in such close proximity. The less wealthy whites are thus condemned to continue their deplorable existence as an even numerically inferior minority in the black slum. This white freedom remains one of money.
