After making comments that likened GC feminists to racists and anti-semites, the Scottish Gov was asked which particular groups she meant, and whether she had any evidence:

They didn’t comment.

She also repeated the argument that UK GC groups are funded by right-wing, American, mysterious and unidentifiable people.

'“Voters are sick to death of attack politics, negative politics, seeing party leaders shout abuse in the chamber. The Greens in opposition had a track record for being constructive'

Is she serious?

I thought the aim of a government was meant to be the safety and well-being of all the people, but maybe I’m old-fashioned and what we really need are Slater’s lessons from the Democratic Republic of Justin Trudeau.

The aim of this government is to ensure that trans people in Scotland enjoy equality and feel safe and accepted for who they are.

What, the sole aim? Do they not have any other people/issues they may like to consider, at all?

Wait, they did comment: “The aim of this government is to ensure that trans people in Scotland enjoy equality and feel safe and accepted for who they are.

“We appreciate the range of strongly held views on the Gender Recognition Act and have always been keen to seek consensus where possible and to work to support respectful debate.

“We are committed to making changes to the 2004 Gender Recognition Act to improve and simplify the process for a trans person to gain legal recognition.”
