Early life
At age 10, Humza Yousaf became a volunteer for charity Islamic Relief. This organisation has been accused on several occasions of being a front for Radical Islamism.
In the aftermath of 9/11, following a protest against military action in Afghanistan, Yousaf engaged in the illegal act of blocking the M8 motorway.[1]
Political career
Early career (2011 - 2012)
In the Scottish Parliament election on the 5 May 2011, Humza Haroon Yousaf was elected as an additional member for the Glasgow region. When being sworn into the Scottish Parliament, Yousaf took his oath in the Pakistani Urdu language whilst wearing a sherwani.
Ministerial failures and crime (2012 - 2023)
In December 2016, while Minister for Transport, Yousaf was was caught by police driving a friend's car without insurance. He was given a £300 fine and six penalty points on his driving license.[3]
On 14 June 2018, Humza posted a meme online with the text "Eid Mu-" with a picture of former US president Barack Hussein Obama, a pun on the Arabic greeting "Eid Mubarak".[5] It is notable that numerous sources suspect Obama to share Yousaf's Islamic faith.
On 28 June 2018, after two years of failure as Transport Minister, Yousaf was appointed by dictator Sturgeon as Justice Secretary, being the only person in Europe to hold such a post without a law degree.[3]
In 2021, Yousaf introduced legislation that creates a new offence of "stiring up hatred", prosecuting anyone who "behaves in a manner that a reasonable person would consider to be threatening, abusive or insulting", even if the behaviour took place in the privacy of the home.[4]
Leadership candidacy (2023)
Following the resignation of Scotland's socialist tyrant Nicola Sturgeon, Yousaf, a key loyalist of Sturgeon, announced on 18 February 2023 that he would run to replace Sturgeon as leader of the Scottish National Party and First Minister of Scotland.[6]
In an racist speech in the Scottish Parliament on 20 February 2023, Yousaf ranted about the majority of high-ranking positions being held by white people in Scotland, a country whose population is around 96% white.[7]
On 22 February 2023, Neil Lal, President of the Indian Council of Scotland, stated that Scotland's Indian community "will not feel safe" if Yousaf became First Minster.[8]
Humza Yousaf claimed on 26 February 2023 that Scotland shouldn't have a First Minister who opposes "equal marriage", referring to the views of his leadership contest rival Kate Forbes. This is despite the fact that Yousaf actually missed the vote on that subject due to pressure from the mosque.[9][10]
Yousaf took control of the Scottish National Party and of Scotland following the SNP leadership election on 27 March 2023. His installation as leader is highly controversial as he relied on second-preference votes to defeat his nearest rival, Kate Forbes, who was preferred by the Scottish general public.[2]
