VITRIOL greeted the Scottish Parliament’s voting down of an amendment to the Gender Recognition Reform Bill, proposed by Tory MSP Russell Findlay, which sought to ban anyone convicted of a sexual offence from changing their gender.
The result of the vote – which saw the amendment defeated by 59 votes to 64 – saw gender critical activists evicted from the chamber after shouting “shame on all of you” from the public gallery.
Later, “The Disgraces of Scotland” began trending on Twitter thanks to one controversial blogger who, in a post shared by Conservative MSP Murdo Fraser, labelled the MSPs who had voted against Findlay’s amendment “rape-enabling misogynist scum”.
