At the moment, Scots politicians have very little on the agenda, so plenty of time to debate much more important questions such as biscuits. Well done all those Scottish MSP's; och aye, hoots mon, and tuck a wee one in yer sporran for Hogmanay!

PC gone mad.
ReplyDeleteMad, and madder.
DeleteI am not a redhead, although I quite like redheads and I think the gingerbread person discriminates against the gingers and red haired among us. I think bread persons would be a more appropriate name.
ReplyDeleteHow about just 'persons'?
DeleteHow about just bread.
Deleteanatomical ginger flavoured biscuit
DeleteIn an ideal world all parliaments will discuss only cookies, there will be no other troubles.
ReplyDeleteNow there's a good idea.
DeleteYes Yael this would be fabulous. But you know it would be like Lilliput and Blefuscu where they argue about which end of the egg to eat first. People will always find something to argue about. but if it is anything to discuss, I would like to say ginger nut biscuits are the best!
DeleteHogpersonay please.
ReplyDeleteThey will be ruling about that any day soon.
DeleteThe snowman is becoming a snowperson. I blame the snowflakes.
ReplyDeleteThey'd be better debating what the Scottish euro coins are going to look like. They'll be needing them soon when they have to cash in all those Bank of Clydesdale notes,
DeleteThe EU may not want them as a member; They'd have to fulfil the membership criteria just like any other country.
DeleteCrumbs!
ReplyDeleteUnless you dunk them in your Buckfast.
DeleteOh, for f***’s sake !!! XXXX
ReplyDeleteMy exact words!
DeleteGod rest ye merry gentle persons.
ReplyDeleteAnd so on, and so on, and so on; where will it end!
DeleteHow die we know they were men anyway with the relevant piece missing?
ReplyDeleteThey have ways of sexing Ginger Persons.
Deleteha ha it is done with a light whilst they are baking?
DeleteHow speciesist. Not everyone is human(evident in politics) NonbinaryLGBTQXGingerbreadbeing has to be the correct name.............
ReplyDeleteI think you'll have to inform Nicola Sturgeon of this.
DeleteIt's ridiculous! Gingerbread 'men' don't even have male parts! If they are really against it they could just call them gingerbread eunuchs!
ReplyDeleteThe ones that Lady Magnon makes are definitely 'men', even though they're fully clothed. I can just tell.
DeleteIs this for real? You're not joking?
ReplyDeleteModern Britain.... No joke!
DeleteThere's an easy solution to this. Put penises on them, preferably erect like the Cerne Abbas giant. The same wouldn't work the other way round without offending trans gingerbread women. I always bite the heads off jelly babies. I would prefer to bite the cocks off.
ReplyDeleteIf you patent the biscuit cutters, you could make a fortune; especially in Scotland.
DeleteThere are a lot of ginger people in Scotland who might take offence...
DeleteYou certainly have them wound up, Cro. There's a better expression for this in Britain, but I can't think of it.
ReplyDeleteYes there are other, and better, expressions; but they are unprintable.
DeleteI've always seen ginger bread men and gingerbread women, never thought too much about it.
ReplyDeleteHowever having said that, a couple of months ago, me and my oldest pal went home to Scotland for the last visit we plan on making.
Did you know that there are indigenous Scots? Blew us away. The topic under discussion was the lack of funding for Arabic language instruction and concerns that education was only available in English and Gaelic in some reason.
I am so glad my Father chose to migrate to Canada. I couldn't live in my homeland now.
Yes, the lack of funding for Arabic, Hindustani, and Swahili, is a disgrace. As for the indigenous Scots; aren't they called Italians?
DeleteI cannot believe they have allowed the persecution of ginger people to continue, surely these should be biscuits of colour? The Scots do take the biscuit at the moment .
ReplyDeleteI hope you're not suggesting that (what used to be called) Gingerbread men, should now be called Coloured people. We'd have riots.
DeleteEdible coloured people.
DeleteHonestly - I don't know whether to laugh or cry!
ReplyDeleteDo neither; just bury your head in some very deep sand!
