I was assaulted by a senior Lib Dem four years ago today. Then on 16th Dec, Willie Rennie told me not to report him as it wasn’t sexual. The Man had bullied me for over a year. Now he was touching me. I was scared. Willie told me I’d not get selected if I reported. #AskAlex

Appalling headline. SNP members (inc very senior ones) have supported me as a whistleblower, just as thousands of SNP voters were welcoming on the doors. I wasn’t just English, I was holding Lib Dem leaflets and (deep breaths) asking them to vote Lib Dem. Appalling headline.

💥PETITION LAUNCH: #AskAlex In 2020, 44 Lib Dem staffers, councillors and members signed a petition letter calling for an independent investigation into my complaints. They were ignored. Now it’s the public’s turn. Let them ignore voters. Please share.

For 3 weeks I’ve been trying to find the words to write to a journalist who told me there isn’t a story in anything I have to say about my time at Liberal Democrats Scotland. I’ll point them to your support. Thank you. There’s clearly a public interest. I’ll find my journalist.

Who is Liz Cole Hamilton and how the hell has she made her way into my DM’s?! Can someone page Alex to tell him to come pick up his mother? @willie_rennie I have my own guidelines. One is to keep family out of it. I’d appreciate it if Alex could stand his Mammy down 😳FFS

Christine Jardine should not be allowed to run in this election. Her bullying has destroyed careers, damaged lives and almost ended lives. Everyone in Edinburgh West needs to watch this video and share it with fellow constituents. #AskAlex #AskChristine #AskEmma

It's amazing that the ex Scot Lib Dem leader can keep a straight face when he talks about 'careful budget management.' In 2019/2020 they spent a quarter of their annual budget on NDA / legal costs and didn't tell their Scottish Executive about it #askalex

In 2018 my MP (Christine Jardine, Lib Dem) took me to Westminster for #AskHerToStand Day. One year later, I had to step in when she bullied a colleague to the point of suicide attempts. Alex Cole Hamilton MSP told me to make a complaint. I did. 1/3

So here I am. I want to show women that you can complain until you’re heard. You can show your anger, your fear, your hurt. You can use dark humour, sarcasm. You can walk away when it’s tough. You can come back and stand in front of your bullies and demand to be heard. 22/24

We don't know whether the claims made by this person are genuine, but at the very least you'd expect the Scottish media to report they've been made given their seriousness.

You don’t care about Alex Cole Hamilton leaking Salmond’s complainants texts to me at midnight on day Salmond have evidence, months after we’d last been in touch. Do you? 🧐They pulled the story and I was devastated. Re-triggered. Scared. Defeated. 16/24

Alex Cole Hamilton was complicit in lying to me about what was on a laptop, and told me to get it out of HQ. Only then did I find out it was hidden evidence that should have been part of the Alastair Carmichael MP trial.

Good morning! If you’re new, welcome. I had unheard workplace complaints with Scot Lib Dems. I’m now whistleblowing in public - pulling back curtain of what it’s like to try to be heard. I want an independent investigation. Fully independent. And public.

Says the woman who bullied people so terribly they attempted suicide in multiple ways. Christine’s behaviour was listed in highest NDA settlement @scotlibdems have ever paid out. I promised their parents that I wouldn’t stop until Christine’s behaviour is on the front pages.

My message to ACH is simple. Alex, look around you, your party is in crisis. Your senior members are so anxious about what I have to say that they’re asking me to delete my accounts and walk away. As ‘Leader’ you’re one of a few people who can try to fix this. Get your finger out
