Maninawan is back in the news

Post by Hoover Attack »

No, not Chabuddy G. The Scottish one.

I'm surprised Faldo or Dunnem or one of the other far/hard righties on here haven't raised this incredible story on here:

Can you summarise please? I tend to avoid any links to the Daily Heil newspaper.

Guy's a crackpot. Been boasting about how the people elected him because of his star quality. Fact is, no one even knew who he was as he was selected to be an MSP by the Party themselves under the list voting system in the Scottish elections

Q Manivannan, a self-confessed "queer Tamil immigrant", who said serial rapists are demonised and thinks rape is "on a spectrum", and who continually ignores the constituents who elected him, has applied for a job as rectum of St. Andrew's University. John Cleese has suggested to students at the university to reject Manivannan.

Manivannan sounds exactly like the kind of person Hoover Attack and the other far/hard lefties on here admire and champion (despite the disrespect shown by deliberately misspelling they's name).

You've just called him an bumhole and I'm disrespectful by accidentally misspelling his name?

You've just misgendered them and I'm disrespectful through my deliberate malapropism referring to the post at St. Andrew's and not them?

Not sure if anyone will know this but has John Cleese always been a reactionary bigot?

I know it's all over the Fawlty Towers episodes but I always thought he was being satirical and ironic. Now I'm not so sure.

Using a slightly different word to try and be funny is not big or clever.

Not only do lefties admire him, they voted him in! Just because you don't admire him doesn't mean no other lefties do.

Presumably you don't know he's an elected MSP representing the Scottish Greens otherwise you wouldn't have made such a basic oversight.
