Let them arrest her. I’m sure she has enough money to drag them through the courts and win destroying their bill
Great work Maddie 🙂 Personally I wish the police had followed what the law had said and prosecuted JKR - "The best way to get a bad law repealed is to enforce it strictly", and this bad law is desperately in need of being repealed!! Not just for Scotland, but as a warning to Labour not to pass the same legislation UK-wide when they inevitably get into power. As a side note - it's always nice to be able to put a face to a voice - I wish the editors podcast was available in video format - I find faceless voices are harder to follow (especially since I still confuse Jim and MBDs voices...)
This law is a false accusers dream.
Shame on Scottish men for allowing this

I'm a Scottish man and I don't take shame in this, every decent normal rational person can see this for what it is and can see it happening not just in Scotland, again we're the test ground, the UNelected FM has an agenda to follow, again WE didn't put him there, the lesson for us is not for his ilk to govern again, he could have left a legacy for him and of his people to be proud of but nope

But these people putting out this law are not reasonable people! That is the problem!
FOR SOME CLARITY!!! The stirring up hatred offence. Since 1986, there has been an offence of stirring up racial hatred. From 1st April 2024, a similar offence is being introduced in Scotland, to cover stirring up hatred on grounds of age, disability, religion, sexual orientation, transgender identity, or variations in sex characteristics (intersex). The offence of stirring up hatred on one of those grounds applies where someone behaves in a way that a reasonable person would consider to be threatening or abusive, and they deliberately intend their behaviour to stir up hatred. The law says it is not an offence if the behaviour was, in the particular circumstances of the case, reasonable. It also says that, when deciding whether the behaviour was reasonable, a court must bear in mind the right to freedom of expression, including that the right applies to expressions that offend, shock or disturb. The law also says that behaviour does not count as threatening or abusive solely because it involves discussion or criticism of matters relating to age, disability, sexual orientation, transgender identity or variations in sex characteristics. To be this offence, the behaviour must be specifically threatening or abusive (not just critical), and it must be done with the intention of stirring up hatred, and not be otherwise reasonable. To give an idea of what kinds of behaviour this might cover, in England there has been a similar offence covering sexual orientation for more than 10 years. A group of people were successfully prosecuted for that offence after they put leaflets through people’s front doors in an English city, calling for the death penalty for LGB people (and including a cartoon of a person being hanged. Now I can only assume that those who have raised concern about this bill (amendment) are either ignorant of the wording/meaning of it, or are scared/ worried about something in it. My view is that, I can't imagine that I'd ever do anything listed above, so it doesn't worry me. Why are so many people panicking about their freedom of speech? The above sets it all out very clearly. Can it be it's another opportunity to have a pop at Scottish government??? Sounds a bit too familiar !!
Yusef should be put in jail - with HIS law - for 7 years!!
They wouldn’t dare arrest her she’s telling the truth🩷🙏🏻
She's white
This is crazy
It really does make you wonder . . . .
I am both a person of Scottish ancestry and an architectural journalist. It cannot be a coincidence that the Scottish Parliament Building in Edinburgh, designed by Catalan architect Enric Miralles Moya and opened in 2004, is one of the ugliest buildings in the United Kingdom. Much like the legislators it accommodates, the building celebrates tribal allegiances, dismissal of established social hierarchies and paganism.
Why is hate against some groups bad enough to merit jail time while hate against others is not. If you really want a stupid law like this, it should apply to everyone.
The worst thing about this are the ones who turn a blind eye to it, shame on you.
No, they won’t, because the whole house of cards will come down.
Are you able to say against a cult or terrorist group. Are they protected?

Does this apply to the Muslim HATE PREACHERS as well?
I note that religion is among the categories that are covered by the law. I would bet my bottom dollar that no anti-christian hate speech would EVER get the attention of the authorities. If you say some bad about Moslems, tho, get ready to meet some policemen and judges.
Weird comments here. The same law has has been in force in England and Wales for a couple of years and Scotland are coming in to line with same law. While this policy was cross party turn it into an SNP bad story. Truth is that the London establishment is shaking in its boots that Scots will become independent and take control of its own assets and is using every opportunity to attach the SNP. Very sad.

JK Rowling, ironically, has 'cojones'. Good on her.
Why not comission a renowned portrait artis, to paint a lifesize portrait of a biological female! And a biological male! In the nude? And at the same time incorporate a portrait of a transgender male in the nude? And a transgender female in the nude? And display them in a public area in every town, and city, throughout the UK? ( I feel this will dispel any doubts about transgenderism for everyone in the UK as to the biological nature of humanity)?
Just talk gaelic instead. 🤣🤣
Its a sad spectacle that with the Empire now fully disintegrated the English are desperate now to hold onto their last colonial outpost and cash cow . The resentment that they feel Scotland is seen as deserting the sinking ship is there for all to see. They just cannot handle that a progressive Scotland is looking to join the other free Independent nations of the World. Pathetic really.

She will not be arrested, and the simple answer as to why is....SHE HAS SPOKEN THE TRUTH. YOU CAN FOOL YOUSELF WITH LIES BUT, YOU CAN'T FOOL ANYONE WITH TRUTH.
This law simply brings Scottish law into line with England. I don’t know what all the fuss is about.
Why only 7 years what if someone is hateful to more than one person or you get a serial offender who's got a taste for it' and won't stop until they hate everybody' 7 years would be tieing the judges hands it needs to be life.
The Scottish hate law is just coming in line with that of England. Think people spouting hate , they should compare England and Scottish versions of the law..
If she wants to test the laws, she should try talking about Mohammed and his child bride. She should try talking about Islam.
