SCOTLAND has a chance to make history and take a stand against “scaremongering and smears” towards the LGBT community as Holyrood prepares to vote on the final stage of Gender Recognition Reform.
The Scottish Greens have said this week will be “vital” for trans rights and equality as MSPs brace for two long days of debates during Stage 3 of legislative scrutiny on Tuesday and Wednesday.
Meanwhile, the Scottish Tories continued their push to have the Bill dropped or delayed, arguing that not enough time has been set aside to consider the 153 amendments to the Bill, claiming it could lead to a “travesty of democracy”.
