Ain’t Got Time To Bleed
It is our solemn duty to inform you we’ve received another legal threat, readers.
Should we cease and desist? Let’s see.
The article in question is this one, and this is everything it said about Mr McNeil:
Only one “statement” is attributed to him – the words “The authorities will be there so we need to be on our best behaviour”. And of course, he DID say that.
So we’ve sent the following reply:
“Dear Sir,
I am of course keen to correct any inadvertent errors on Wings Over Scotland. However, I am at a loss to identify any from your email. The email does not comply with the proper pre-action protocols for media claims laid down by the courts, and your 48-hour deadline is not a valid one, but in the interests of clarity and resolving this matter promptly I will respond rather than waste any more time waiting for you to format your complaint in the correct manner.
You claim that “the article contains false statements that damage my reputation” and that “I did not make any of the statements attributed to me”.
The article only attributes one statement to you – “The authorities will be there so we need to be on our best behaviour” – and you demonstrably DID make that statement, which can still be viewed on your TikTok page here, as linked in the article:
https://www.tiktok.com/@kaymcneil01/video/7494946594714881302
from 0.12 to 0.15. (I have of course saved a copy in case you should attempt to remove it.) And the article is clear that you made the statement “beforehand”, not at the event itself. Therefore the statement is neither false nor defamatory in any way whatsoever. It is a wholly accurate and properly sourced account of what you said.
With regard to the use of the image, since it is taken from a video placed by you on the aforementioned TikTok page where it can be freely viewed by anyone, you can have no “reasonable expectation of privacy” regarding it, nor any possible claim that it is “confidential”. It is in the public domain.
Accordingly, I refuse all of your demands. So you go ahead and pursue whatever “legal remedies” you like, big fella. See you in court, or not.
Kind regards,
Rev. Stuart Campbell
Editor”
And now, for no reason, here’s a picture of the Predator.
We’ll keep you updated with any developments, folks.
That’s the politest ‘fuck off you mental troon’ letter I’ve seen.
Rev Stu is always unfailingly polite!
Predator is prettier
Bring on the crowdfunder
A more extensive reply to that given in Arkell and Pressdram, but with the same result.
smear yourself with mud, rev
– they can only see you in the infra red
Bloody hell !
I was warned many years ago that the girls in Dundee were a “bit rough”…..but Kay is something else !
Predator does a better job of “passing”…
The typical “you may only write or say positive things about me” activist. Having signed a sick and appalling, “don’t believe those lying rape victims” letter, I’m not sure what reputational damage (over and above that) might be sustained by having your own public image displayed on a blog.
No way! The predator was a highly advanced hunter killer drawn to conflict and honourable in defeat.
This mad daisy is a stain on a cum sock.
“Dear sir” – tee hee!
Reminds me, I need to check my loft insulation!lol
That’s a bloke.
Oh my fucking sides. Stu 1st class ,bolt ya squib.
LOL Brilliant Reply
How come this fuckwit get a job as a snivel serpent??
Of course it’s a man. An apology for one. However being an apology for a man doesn’t make him a woman
That’s a truly fugly bloke.
I reckon it’s the “Civil” Service that should be suing him for loss of reputation.
That “big fella” has to hurt 🙂
LOL!
A can of worms has opened and it’ll be here for a long time, Woman loses case against her employer over transgender toilet policy.
‘Dear Sir’ – ya beauty!
You won’t be hearing from the big fella again on this subject.
That man is a public body of government- A civil servant
Gender and sex are a private right matter in Scotland.
Article XV111. Unalterable , And For the evident utility of the subjects of Scotland,
Not for the use civil servants, or government or any other public body.
Perhaps he should be made aware of his ignorance on the laws in Scotland, wrote down, and that HE is breaching that law if doing that in Scotland.
While Scotland has been refused a choice of self determination by the GB/ UK parliament, government public bodies and therefore independence, from the treaty of union, we must test the treaty to challenge it in laws they state apply.
Imposing his chosen gender on all the subjects of Scotland breaches article XV111 whilst doing this publicly in public as a civil servant body or not, still infringes on everyone else’s private rights in Scotland. And affects/ effects our Private Rights.
As a trained public body of government employee He or his chosen gender should be only a private matter to himself. and should know better.
Time to return, quote and test the reality of the treaty of union
The difference between public matters and “private matters in Scotland ” is an excellent topic to begin testing wether or not the treaty of union pre- terms, conditions and articles hold any water or strength in Scotland.
If they should fail the test of a International agreed treaty, so be it.
Try dipping it in warm milky water.
The unilateral teabag test.
The situation and topic Stu has posted is a perfect example of the “Difference betwixt Public and Private Matters in Scotland”.
Unalterable.
A excellent example because the …(event)…it took place in Scotland, regardless of wether Stu is in Scotland, in fact it would help Stu, if the person makes a legal challenge while breaking a law wrote down in a treaty.
It breached Scots Law.
And this is why I think while we are tied to a supposed treaty, and being refused self Determination , seeking independence from that treaty, if the other half of that treaty still insist it is binding, then we use every detail in that treaty to ensure that that treaty becomes a thorn and nettle to hang on too.
It is wise Use what tools are available to us at this moment in time, It does not imply that the other avenues we are seeking should be disgarded or set aside.
Fabulous reply. So glad you’re using the correct pronouns as well 🙂
The door in can be used as the door out,
It could be considered a private matter in Scotland not to share private matters or disclose private data matters to third parties for the subjects ( people ) of Scotland,
It could be considered a personal private matter to prevent attachment of ID cards to the people in Scotland. Due to personal and private matters in data sharing.
It could be considered in the past, that it infringed on the “private rights of the people of Scotland” to have a poll tax, ( head tax) placed on the Scottish people one year before anywhere else in Britain, but we never were not astute enough at the time to recognise article XV111 could have been used, instead some people went to prison.
We need to wake up, to stop sleep walking. There is more than one way to swing a cat,
( strange saying) but the facts are that we are not using what we could use and what is also available as tools right now,
The treaty of union is one of those tools we can turn around to our own advantage, while we are stuck with it,
To become a problem for down south for as long as they refuse self determination and independence for Scotland and I could foresee it collapsing the treaty on a international level.
As its classed as entrenched and a fundamental part of the treaty,
Like I suggested prior to this,
Is it a private matter for the subjects of Scotland to make use for their evident utility, the right to Self Determination,
And not for a government body?
In Scotland under article XV111 women by (sex biology) have the right to a private space, it is a private matter, not a public body matter or decision by law.
Because it law in Scotland, the person above surely is showing discrimination toward biological women and a Hate crime towards biological women under “Private Rights” in Scotland article.
He is in the public places spouting this stuff, interfering with the legal private rights of Scottish biological women.
You men have “private rights” in Scotland too mind.
What a lawyerly expression “including but not limited to” is.
Its meaning is identical to “including” but you get to charge for more words.
Be that as it may, I have become out of touch with this blog. Who is that absurd female impersonator? Is he related in any way to La Sturgeon?
You need to go to SpecSavers. Now.
And please, for the sake of all of us, get somebody to drive you there.
Absolute zinger of a reply, sir!
poor kent needs help, oot the door…..
Rev,
I may not always agree with everything you write, but that is a classic reply and I salute you for writing it (and standing up to these deranged bullies)
I wouldn’t trust that “person” to mow my lawn…..
The most beautiful “dear Sir” I’ve read in my life.
One thing I love about the articles on this site is the superb sense of humour often laced through many of them. This one however just has to top the lot. I was literally in tears with laughter when I got to the end. Just brilliant.
Can you please remove my photo for no other reason than I dont want to be compared to that atrocity
Brilliant Stu,
You ripped that dude another dozen arseholes with that reply.
I’m sure he’ll know what to do with them. 🙂
It’s a man in drag nothing else .
