HUMZA Yousaf has hit back at JK Rowling amid a row over the Scottish Government’s upcoming misogyny bill – saying people should look at the “facts”.:"Women and girls will be protected, and trans women will be protected as well, as they will often be the ones who suffer threats of rape or threats of disfigurement for example.
She wrote on Twitter/X: “Women were excluded from his nonsensical hate crime law, now he introduces a 'misogyny law' designed to also protect men.” “Bad faith actors are intent on turning every issue into a culture war. Let’s not allow them to divide our society into those who are worthy of protection from hatred and those who are not.”He said: “It’s an astonishing accusation, to suggest that the government that’s bringing forward a bill to tackle misogyny has contempt for women doesn't make any logical sense.
“That is the approach taken to other aggravations. Effeminate straight men are commonly the victim of offences motivated by homophobia. Sikhs receive Islamophobic abuse. Darker skinned caucasians receive racist abuse. Protestant Celtic supporters receive anti-Catholic abuse. Yousaf added: “That's all I ask people to do. Look at the facts and what we've got in the proposed misogyny bill, which we will, of course, seek to bring forward as soon as we can.”We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
