“This Will Be Weaponised!” Fears Scotland’s New Hate Crime Law ‘Criminalises’ Free Speech

  • New controversial hate crime laws will take effect from April 1, the Scottish Government has announced.
    The Hate Crime and Public Order (Scotland) Act was passed by MSPs in March 2021 but its passage was one of the most difficult of the SNP’s time in government.
    The Bill was heavily criticised throughout the process, with ministers repeatedly forced to climb down on certain provisions, such as the potential impact on performers.
    The legislation will create a new offence of stirring up hatred against protected characteristics, including age, disability, religion, sexual orientation and gender identity, matching a similar offence based on race that has been on the statute book for decades.
    Some concerns remain over the potential criminalisation of free expression.
    TalkTV’s Jake Berry discusses the story with director of advocacy at Sex Matters Helen Joyce, broadcaster Matthew Stadlen and conservative commentator Chloe Dobbs.

Humza says the Police will investigate every complaint however we all know any complaints made by whites, or Christians etc. will all get filed into the bin.

  • @UltimateMadWorld
    @UltimateMadWorld 2 місяці тому +4

    You don't need to live in Scotland to have nightmares of a seemingly distopian Orwellian future. But I'll tell you this much that Humza Yousaf is emotionally compromised from serving his duties to the fullest on whether his mind is entirely on the job as First Minister at Bute House which am very saddened to say which we hardly need a third opinion over that one in that respect!
    Sadly we all saw the First Minister Humza Yousaf broke down in tears sadly with Sky's Political Correspondent Ruth Rigby back in the 14th of October of last year over the very distressing ordeal that Humza Yousaf said of what his own mother-in-law endured in his very own words, and I quote, "complete distress".So in all fairness one can say that the jury has now indeed been summoned as to how much of that complete distress the good people of Scotland are having to endure which is not only deeply concerning but that which is very much democratically alarming!!
    Why should the Scottish people be used as emotional punching bags for the First Minister's 'complete distress' to the point that he's threatening to deny an entire people's enshrined human rights, freedom of speech and expression which are the very foundations of a fair democracy itself which is enshrined in the United Nation's Charter for Human Rights!!
    Undermined by one who's motives are obviously and clearly triggered by an underlying personal crisis that has manifested itself towards one conducting themselves 'deeply irrationally and therefore out of character' that does not meet the norms of one's fiscal duty whilst in office.
    In this case due to personal trauma that was endured from the experiences from another part of the World sadly.
    Considered as an honourable man of whom with deep distinction who was originally sworn in as an MSP prior to being nominated as that of First Minister by members of the SNP as a fit and proper incumbent person who has since sadly been emotionally and very likely psychologically compromised in that regard who has failed to fathom that without freedom of expression and free speech then there is no concept of a free democracy let alone that of a devolved one for that matter!
    It seriously does beg to ask the First Minister if he is still aware that Scotland is recognised as a Sovereign country and furthermore has one wondering if he has ever heard of George Orwell nevermind that of his works even such as that of 1984??
    So may we therefore also remind the First Minister Humza Yousaf that 'free speech' is already enshrined in the United Nation's Charter for Human Rights so therefore First Minister Humza Yousaf has indeed rendered himself in very much an extremely untenable position from that of the fiscal norms!!
    And finally do we really seriously have to legally remind the First Minister over the very definition and use of: 'Actus non facit reum, nisi mens sit rea' which indicates that the prosecution in a criminal case 'MUST' prove 'beyond a reasonable doubt', not only a criminal act such as a hate crime, but a certain level of a guilty mind (mens rea), specified in the criminal statute??
