Scotland’s clownish first minister thinks his identity should place him beyond criticism. It is tempting to think of Scottish first minister Humza Yousaf as merely a clownish character. Remember when, last year, he asked a group of female Ukrainian refugees, ‘Where are all the men?’, seemingly forgetting about the war they would have been fighting in. And who can forget when, in 2021, he fell off a scooter while speeding down the halls of Holyrood? He was health minister at the time. Comical though he is, these gaffes tend to obscure a more sinister side to the first minister – namely, his obsession with a racial identity politics. Recently, this was brought back to the fore because of his own Hate Crime Act.
