CRITICS of Scotland’s new hate crime laws must stop ‘peddling misinformation’, the First Minister has said.
The Hate Crime and Public Order Act has dominated headlines since it came into effect last week, with figures such as Harry Potter author JK RowlingSpeaking to the PA news agency in Prestwick on Saturday, Yousaf made an appeal to opponents of the law to refrain from spreading false information.
He added: “There’s no place for that in Scotland, and you have to send a really strong signal that the law will protect you.” Yousaf also shared his views in an opinion article in The Courier newspaper, urging politicians and public figures to create a debate rooted in “reality”. Yousaf, who lives in Dundee, also said his “heart sank” after learning buildings near his home in Broughty Ferry had been vandalised with racial slurs last week, but added he said he was “not surprised”.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.
