Jane Godley is the voice of Scotland's draconian coof rules. I guess its easy to stay indoors when this is a perfectly accurate description of your country:
Anyway, Janey (as the Scots call her in their vulgar, over-familiar way) was prone to give opinions on the πs and the πs on twitter over 10 years ago. Those tweets are now closed but judging by her banner photo she had a case of the TDS.

The Daily Beast still apparently have readers in Scotland and they ran a hit piece on her:
Because Scotland is a backward shithole, Scotlands first minister actually thought anything the Daily Beast prints is worth listening to and fired "Janey": this is the same first minister who had her predecessor ran out of politics because he touched a woman on the knee once:
Scottish redditors have booted up their Compaq laptops and waited no the dial-up connection so as to have their say...

...where Scotland's brave white knights raise the Saltire in defence of milady honor. Also, everything is always the English's fault (which is true everywhere but Scotland).
There are about three more threads on the sub.
I do want to bring to your attention this chap:

...who posts all of his comments in a textual approximation of a Scottish accent. There are a small but vocal group of them on the Scottish subs and they always make me laugh. It-uh would-uh be like me constantly writing like-uh dis all-uh of-uh duh time-uh if I were to try and approximate the worst, most incomprehensible Chinese accent I could manage.
What's even better is that they go to other subs outside of the Jock-o-sphere and frequently forget to do it.

Next she'll be shocked drug dealers and contract killers get arrested for doing exactly what their job titles entail.
Lol, and then Kanye would end up saying something far more offensive than she ever did with that slavery was a choice moment.

Shut the frick up. Chances are you will never have to face issues related to abuse or racism (assuming youβre white) and because of that it will always be something you can βjokeβ about, because it will never seriously affect you. Maybe if you actually knew what it felt like to be secondary or othered because of your race, or if you were traumatized from domestic violence or knew someone who was, youβd know why this makes the people actually affected by that uncomfortable. This meme could trigger flashbacks and other trauma for an abuse victim and ruin their entire day, possibly their entire fricking week or even more, and theyβd have to deal with that because some edgelord thought it would be a funny meme format.
