A Scottish teacher who told friends he would 'happily kill' his 'b***h' colleague and 'kick her and her dog into the Clyde' has been struck off the register.
Alan MacOnie, a former modern languages professor at Rothesay Academy in Argyll and Bute, made the comments to a colleague on Facebook Messenger in 2019.
The General Teaching Council for Scotland (GTCS) said MacOnie sent the messages, deemed to be of a 'threatening nature', while referring to French teacher Susan Jack.
In the messages, MacOnie referred to Ms Jack as a 'b***h' and said that he often sees her walking her dog along the River Clyde.
MacOnie said: 'I feel like kicking them both in the Clyde', before adding that he 'would happily kill her'.
The teacher also wrote that Ms Jack 'totally ruined' and 'hijacked' his retirement.

MacOnie was said to have made the comments after being accused of forging Ms Jack's signature on verification documents for the SQA National 5 German and French exams.
In its ruling yesterday, the GTCS said MacOnie was unfit to teach and that it will be removing him from the register following a three-day hearing.
The allegations, which were all found to be proved by the GTCS, state: 'Whilst employed as a Principal Teacher at Rothesay Academy by Argyll and Bute Council and in the course of his employment, the teacher...in November 2019, sent messages via Facebook messenger to a former colleague, that referred to Susan Jack and were of a threatening nature.'
The messages, which were full of spelling mistakes, from MacOnie's social media account, read: 'My tetirement washighJACKed and every time I see that dog walking her dog. rat along, I feel like kicking them both into the Clyde.
'Hate that b***h. Really. Totally ruined my retirement.
'Would happily kill her. Not even good at her job. Far from it lol. I know [redacted] but sometimes a wee walk to the sea is so tempting.
'Maybe one day very soon. Rothesay Academy thanks for nothing [redacted] not the first. Treated like ann an animal.' [sic]
