Yup, Wadhwa is back!

Aiming to stand as a candidate on the Edinburgh list for the socttish parliament next year.

No explanation or mention of Edinburgh rape crisis, of course. Wadhwa is trans, so cannot possibly be expected to explain Wadhwa's actions with public money like any CEO would have to. No idea how anybody in the greens expects this to play out - maybe they are just hoping nobody will notice???

They're taking the piss, actually taking the fucking piss.

Well, they're usually happier to donate, to be fair.

They make Reform look like thoroughly upstanding chaps.

Yep having perused that list it certainly looks like a selection of interesting characters. The two women seem the most normal but probably aren't due to the fact they are part of the rainbow greens. Who've had nappy fetishists in their group if I remember that Wings over Scotland exposé from a few years ago. Just...lovely. Why any actual women would want to go near them is madness to me.

If you're including Iris Duane, he's a man.

Seriously? Who said raped women need to "reframe their trauma" and stop being so bigoted against men, that Wadwa?

I hope the people in the area he's going to be standing in asked some very pointed questions of their barnpot candidate.
The Greens are now the 'certifiably party' anyone who is still a member needs to hang their head in shame.
