Scotland's a boil you have to keep on lancing

A CANDIDATE for Nigel Farage's new party has been sacked after claiming Scotland is like a "turd that won't flush" and our only exports are "Irn-Bru and smack".

Benjamin Dade, who was set to stand for the right-wing Reform UK party, also said the English considered Scotland a "boil you have to keep lancing".

And he claimed that England should send "the RAF and parachute regiment" to invade Scotland if it became independent.

Reform last night sacked Dade after the Daily Record told them about his anti-Scottish and right-wing comments.

But the decision to select him as a candidate in the first place was slammed by mainstream Scottish politicians last night.

Scottish Labour MSP Paul O'Kane said: "Dade's sacking is welcome news but it's deeply concerning that Reform Party ever entertained him as a candidate. His provocative and poisonous rhetoric has no place in our political discourse and has rightly been identified and called out.

"Thankfully Dade's own credibility and vitriolic bile has been flushed away"

Lib Dem MP Christine Jardine echoed that, saying: "This candidate is completely out of order.

"People up and down the UK will be appalled at his far-right, anti-immigrant, anti-Scottish ramblings.
