We believe that anti-Scottish racism is growing in all of Scotland but particularly in higher education, and that this requires to be urgently addressed. We will seek to assist anyone, of any race or social background, who has been discriminated against because they are perceived to be Scottish.

The culture of Settler Colonialism is spreading racism.
We oppose the use of "blood and soil" to describe people who are clearly not fascists.

We regularly encounter working class Scottish kids whose confidence and ability to function as adults in the real world were significantly compromised by anti-Scottish racism at university.
For some it has been as scarring and detrimental as any form of abuse or traumatic event.

The event doesn't actually ever refer to this as "snobbery" (that's the term used in media reports that covered the event). Our work argues that elitism is the enabling mechanism of linguistic discrimination at UoE, i.e., an ideology of how the "typical" student speaks/acts.

We find the notion that events like this had to be organised to gain attention shows that Scots, like many colonised peoples, can’t be recognised as victims of racism by the dominant population. Calling racism “snobbery” is classic colonial racism which downgrades oppression of the indigenous.
5 (!!!) tickets left for our 130-person event on linguistic discrimination in Higher Education next Friday:

Glasgow and surrounding areas had their industry decimated by Westminster with the sole purpose of making them and their people politically weak.
It was a racially motivated attach on the personal welfare of the people of Glasgow.

Sadly Scotland is being de-industrialised. Colonies do not have normal levels of industry or infrastructure. The classic example is Wales a country which only has one small stretch of motorway. The Clyde won’t be developed.

We don't use a complainers ethnic background or religion or person appearance or any other personal attribute to conclude that anti-Scottish racism has taken place.

We exclusively assess the nature and quality of the racist act or statement.

Fixation on race is not our problem.
October 25, 2025 at 8:52 AM
We are here to help.
But our rules are specific to assess possible racist abuse.
We are, however, happy to have posts sent to us that on the face of it contain comment that indicates racism.
Our ultimate goal is to have anti-Scottish racism criminalised the same as any other racism.
Happy you DM us with your issues provided.

Sounds crazy, he lost two UK general elections, had some of the lowest leader polling in history, he had so little appeal he took no.of Lab MPs back to 1935 after his disastrous Brexit & 2019 challenge to Boris Bonkers. But far left are never happier the when they are both performative & powerless.

People moving to Scotland under a racist colonial authority that they actively defend against critical debate are a threat to the welfare of Scottish children of every colour and faith.
