A candidate bidding to become Glasgow's first trans councillor has said she wants to be a “face that doesn’t cause fear” amid a climate of “disinformation.”
Former environmental manager Elaine Gallagher, who has three degrees would be one of the city's first trans councillors if she gets elected on Thursday. Standing for the Scottish Greens in the Southside Central ward, Elaine, aims “to look out for everyone” including defending trans rights.
Currently there are vocal critics who are against transgender people being able to choose to use a single sex space such as toilets and changing rooms.
