“ANTI RACIST“ campainer INVESTIGATED for hate speech at anti hate rally. Pro UK rally had no issues
A CELTIC activist and academic has been accused of hate speech following a rally.
Professor Jeanette Findlay spoke at the anti-racism demo in Glasgow city centre on Saturday.
Counter-protesters took to the streets after a pro-UK rally was organised in George Square.
Prof Findlay was recorded delivering a speech onstage.
She called the pro-UK protesters at the square members of loyalist groups and the Orange Order.
Prof Findlay added that the demonstrators “swim in the same dirty water as racists“ south of the border.
Prof Findlay said: “When you talk about the people who are standing at the back of this square and who are assembled in the pubs behind us, that rag-tag and bobtail crowd are not who you’re thinking about.
“They’re from the Orange Order. They’re from loyalist groups, that’s who they are.
“They’re the people who swim in the same dirty water as the racists who’re in Luton or London or anywhere else.“
She added: “A group of anti-fascist marchers from our community came in this square and they’re currently being kettled over in that corner by political police who stood and let them assemble, who’ve allowed them to assemble inside those bars behind us, but when our people arrive to stand as anti-racists, with anti-racists, they’re kettled in that corner.
“But when you say you ’won’t allow the right’ on your streets, can I remind you that the right march our streets every week 11 months of the years and in particular in July they take over the city from the first hour of the morning to the last hour at night. Because if you can assemble for that, you need to stand with us and our community and protect our churches, our places of worship, when those b*****ds are going past us.“
In another clip that surfaced online, Prof Findlay said to a police officer: “Are you moving the huns? Are you moving the loyalists? Are you moving them?“
Afterwards, the Loyal Orange Institution of Scotland issued a statement.
It accused Prof Findlay of directing ’hate speech’ towards the protestant community.
The institution said it had complained to Police Scotland and the Scottish Government about her.
The statement read: “The Grand Orange Lodge of Scotland strongly condemn the “Hate” speech given by the leader of Call it Out, Jeanette Findlay on Saturday in George Square.
“The speech by Professor Jeanette Findlay, Professor of Economics at the Adam Smith Business School at Glasgow University, is a prime example of hate speech directed towards the Protestant community. Such rhetoric is harmful and divisive, and it has no place in our society. We must strive to foster a community built on mutual respect and understanding, where all individuals and groups feel safe and valued.
“Glaringly, for far too long, the poison of anti-Protestantism in our society has been swept under the carpet by successive Scottish Governments, and it seems as if at times it is indeed Scottish Government policy to do so.“
Todd Ferguson, Tory councillor for North Ayrshire and Arran, posted on X that the speech breached the Hate Crime and Public Order (Scotland) Act 2021.
A Police Scotland spokesperson said: “A complaint has been received and is being assessed.”
Prof Findlay is a trustee of The Celtic Trust, which seeks to bolster supporter shareholdings in the Parkhead club.
