Comments by JK Rowling that described prominent transgender women activists as “men” will not be recorded as a non-crime hate incident, Police Scotland has said.
The Harry Potter author challenged police to arrest her in a series of posts on X on Monday as the Scottish government’s contentious hate crime law came into force, which she described as “wide open to abuse”. She listed sex offenders who had described themselves as transgender alongside well-known trans women activists, describing them as “men, every last one of them”.
