Scottish Greens targets Kate Forbes and her beliefs

Never trust anyone who uses God for political leverage. "I am a Christian" Sure you are He either doesn't understand Christianity or doesn't understand radical socialism's views on Christianity.

[@AliG-fd2ho]

Kate Forbes is a talented politician who has essentially stated that she will not roll back passed legislation. She has the courage of conviction to stick with her beliefs, and whether you agree with her or not, many respect her for this. Thankfully the SNP is a broad church and can accommodate diversity of opinion. Clearly the Greens cannot.

[@urgumskurgum7570]

GREENS ARE A JOKE !!!!!!!!!

[@thelewischessman3726]

Who cares what the greens think or support, kate forbes has morals and thats what the majority of scotland respect. Humza's religion puts ross greers community to death but the don't dare criticise that as he's a bloody coward

[@Rambo-2468]

Surely this is bullying Kate and should be addressed by the presiding officer. Sounds like an attack on a persons belief and free speech whereas if Ms Forbes attacked Mr Greer in the same way that he’s attacking her I’m sure the presiding officer and members of the Scottish parliament would have something to say. You can’t bully someone because of their religious beliefs. I’m sure Mr Yusaf, didn’t suffer this kind of attack on his beliefs.

What happened to live and let live ?. Scotland now seems to be a culture of if you don’t agree with me your persecuting me which is a hate crime. If someone has strong religious beliefs that’s their choice and no one should decry them for it. Why do some people think they are entitled to criticise others because they see things differently from them?. If you not happy with appointments you’re more than welcome to leave and set up your own parliament.

[@hj925]

As if we haven't learnt more than we expected from these toads. The personal attacks on Forbes are genuinely disgusting. While the Greens and their claimed allies, those they say they speak for, may well hate someone with alternative views it's not their beliefs that matter, but what they do. An odd reversal of assumptions about the Greens as it happens. A naive expectations that they stood for better environmental approach became interference in families and all the awful things they have been party to. They must never have power again. As for Forbes, two other things I'd like to mention. First, apart from slanders and unfounded projections of alleged actions, what has she ever actually done against any LGBQ people? Neither the Greens or LGBTQ "communities" should forget another truth. When the dominant admittedly church led, but far from only church led, heavy handed treatment of LGBTQ people (as they are fundamentally the main point here) it was wrong, but persecution the other way is WRONG too. Trying to deny Forbes office and attack her in these petty and unfounded ways may be nothing more than a taste of what Green "rule" would be like. Not safe for everyone for sure. No persecution should be allowed for anything within the law and perhaps someone should assess the Green comments about Forbes in terms of "hate speech". I just hope she politically rubs their noses in it and they never, ever get power or any influence again. Let's hope that SNP at least see the errors in trusting these people.
