A new Green MSP previously posted online that they could not wait for the late Queen Elizabeth II to “kick the bucket”, it has emerged.
They? Even the Telegraph does the “they” thing?
Iris Duane, a biological male who uses she/her pronouns, referred to the late Queen as “big lizard Lizzie” in a social media post in January 2022.
I don’t care about the anti-monarchism, it’s the “biological male” who “uses” female pronouns that I can’t be doing with. We don’t “use” the pronouns that other people refer to us by which. The correct word would be “demands” and the answer should be no.
The controversy came after it emerged a second newly elected trans Green MSP does not have a permanent visa to work in the UK.
Q Manivannan, an Indian immigrant who identifies as non-binary, was elected as an MSP on the Edinburgh & Lothians East list.
The former PhD student has appealed to colleagues for £2,089 of funding for a temporary graduate visa that would allow them to work as an MSP.
Golly. Who knew it was that easy?
Also why would colleagues want to give him £2,089?
Manivannan was elected on the Edinburgh & Lothians East list using the same proportional representation system.
The self-described “queer Tamil immigrant” was only able to stand in the election after SNP ministers loosened the rules on who could be a Holyrood candidate.
Foreigners could previously only become an MSP if they had indefinite leave to remain in the UK.
Last year, the SNP government introduced legislation that meant they could qualify if they had leave of any type, such as a short-term study visa.
So he’s there to study for a short term and he runs for a job in the parliament. It seems…disconnected.
