SNP Guardian Cartoon By Steve Bell Branded 'Racist' In Social Media Outrage

A cartoon featuring Nicola Sturgeon and Alex Salmond by one of the in The Guardian's most prestigious satirists has been branded racist for including a joke about incest.

Steve Bell's Monday cartoon shows the SNP leader saying she would work with a Labour government after the May election but would not compromise on its "core demand" of "incest and Scottish Country Dancing".

Social media outrage took hold almost immediately, with claims the cartoon had been reported to police as a hate crime as tweeters took to the digital barricades. Police Scotland told HuffPost UK it was unable to confirm any official complaints.

lol fancy that, the Guardian being called racist, though I fail to see any racism here other than taking the piss.
Best laugh I have had all the day, the left at each others throats.

You don't see the relationship between that and the cartoon then?
