Joan McAlpine responds to comments from Cllr Jim Dempster

“It is deeply disappointing the Cllr Dempster made these Islamaphobic comments towards the Transport Minister.

 

“He has admitted them and apologised for them, and the best thing would be for him to resign.

 

“To suggest diversity training will do when someone in his position should clearly already know better is completely unacceptable.”
