The SNP’s deputy Westminster leader revealed she was “incredibly hurt” by Kate Forbes’ controversial comments on gay marriage.
Mhairi Black, MP for Paisley and Renfrewshire South, hit out at the party leadership contender on Twitter and says allowing religion to dictate how to vote on policy is a display of “intolerance”.
As she kicked off her campaign last week to succeed First Minister Nicola Sturgeon, Ms Forbes said she would not have voted in favour of legislation to legalise gay marriage in 2014 had she been an MSP at the time.
