Reform UK Politician Under Police Investigation for Saying she was ‘Born and Bred’ in Great Britain

Reform UK councillor Claire Mackie-Brown…

Many on the other side of the Atlantic equate Britain’s newest political party, Reform UK, as Britain’s answer to America’s MAGA Republican movement.

But unlike the United Kingdom, we American MAGA Republicans aren’t afraid of letting people know where we’re from.

Sadly, Claire Mackie-Brown, a Reform UK councillor (city council member) from Falkirk, Scotland, is now under police investigation for stating she’s Scotland ‘born and bred’. I guess being proud and patriotic is now strictly verboten in the UK.

If there’s any question in your mind that free speech has been replaced with Chairman Mao’s updated for the 21st century Cultural Revolution in Britain today, just read what I’ve highlighted in the article below.

As reported by GB News, via LearnCommonLaw.today;

A Scottish Reform UK councillor has been reported to police after she made a comment saying she was “born and bred here” amid a discussion about asylum hotel protests.

Falkirk councillor Claire Mackie-Brown, who joined the party in March, has been reported to Police Scotland and an independent council standards watchdog for the remarks she made during a recent interview.

A document outlining her alleged breaches has been sent to police and the Ethical Standards Commissioner for Scotland.

Speaking to STV News about the asylum hotel protests, the councillor said: “There is a true unrest and it is scary.

“It’s scary as a local resident, somebody who was born and bred here.”

She then turned away from the camera, muttering “I shouldn’t have said that”, adding “that just came out, it came out”.

“It wasn’t as a councillor but I do understand, yeah.”

According to The National, the anonymous complaint claims the “born and bred” comment could be “insulting to asylum seekers by implying their lesser legitimacy”.

The complaint adds: “The phrase ‘born and bred’ carries specific connotations in immigration discourse, particularly when contrasted with the presence of asylum seekers.
