Quotes

• “We then went to a smaller town, Sant Andreu de la Barca, to a health centre, and when we arrived the Guardia Civil had just left. They had broken down the door of the health centre and attacked people with batons. There were a lot of older people crying ... We spoke to a local councillor who said that when the Guardia Civil came to take the ballot boxes, he asked them for a warrant, and they just pushed him out of the way.”
• “In my case, I was kicked off the SNP frontbench for speaking up for women's rights and for lesbian rights.And I've also received rape and death threats, as is a matter of public record. I've had no public support from my political party, despite those rape and death threats.So, I think many parliamentarians are just trying to keep out of this debate because they’re afraid to speak up.”
• “It should not be possible for venues or their staff to no-platform lesbians or feminists who believe that sex is an immutable biological fact just because of our sexuality or our beliefs. [...] That sort of discrimination is unlawful and I'm sure most people would agree it's not acceptable”
• “[Advocating for the protection of free speech from "the heckler's veto"] The failure to do so and the actions of some political figures in fostering an intolerant and hateful climate where small groups of activists now decide who can speak and what can be discussed needs to be called out.What does it say about the Fringe and Edinburgh, the home of the enlightenment, when an elected Edinburgh politician can’t be asked questions on stage in the city they represent?”
• “I was one of a number of members elected on a manifesto to deliver better transparency and scrutiny over the party's finances and governance.I'm sad to say we failed to do that, and it wasn't for the want of trying.I just regret it's come to this. I would like those who stood in the way of reform back in 2020-21 to reflect on what they've done.”
• “I've always argued that the way to win a referendum was to persuade people who voted no in 2014 of the merits of our case.The SNP needs to discuss both how we convince people to the cause of independence and also how we actually win our independence.We need to put the sovereignty of the Scottish people back to the front and centre of our debate.”
