Fear of reprisal

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Scottish Labour must be able to disagree with UK party without fear of reprisal

The two candidates running to become the next leader of Scottish Labour have been urged to demand answers on whether Anas Sarwar’s split with Keir Starmer damaged the party’s Holyrood election campaign.

Just For Scotland has written to Joe Fagan and Michael Marra to seek clarity from the UK party following reports it tried to scupper Sarwar’s campaign to become first minister after he called for Starmer to quit in February.

As reprisal is a fundamental political tactic and always has been, this request is delightfully ironic. Good grief, without reprisal directed at political enemies simply for being political enemies, the Labour Party as we know it would disappear into the mephitic mists of history. 

Governments also promote fear of reprisal as a general behavioural manipulation tool within the voting population. Censorship too, this unlovely feature of life has its reprisal aspect. Anything from vocal political dissent on sensitive issues to ridicule or parody may be caught in the reprisal net. 

“Politically correct” has come to mean safe from official reprisal.
