Tory MSP poses with pubic wig and Holyrood 'flasher' amid police probe into incident

A TORY MSP met with a gender-critical activist who “flashed” Holyrood while wearing a pubic wig before the passage of controversial gender law reforms.

Russell Findlay posed for a picture with a merkin – which can be used to cover a woman’s genitals – at a pub with a group of activists including For Women Scotland directors Marion Calder and Susan Smith, and Elaine Miller, who exposed herself while wearing the pubic wig during a Scottish Parliament debate last week.

The MSP for the West of Scotland region posted a picture of himself and a group of 10 women with a protest banner in the background of the shot with the words “Privacy, Dignity, Safety” – a slogan which was displayed by activists on the same day as the exposure stunt.
