But First Minister Humza Yousaf insisted that the new legislation would help tackle a ‘rising tide’ of hate.
Scotland’s First Minister has insisted he is “very proud” of new hate crimes laws which have just come into force, as author JK Rowling warned the legislation is “wide open to abuse”.
But with the new Act giving protection to transgender people, Rowling, who does not believe people can change their gender, insisted: “Freedom of speech and belief are at an end in Scotland if the accurate description of biological sex is deemed criminal.” But Humza Yousaf declared he is “very proud” of the new laws, saying they will help protect against a “rising tide” of hatred.
However Mr Yousaf said Chief Constable Jo Farrell had “made it very clear the appropriate training is absolutely being provided”.
