‘I completely support everybody’s right to protest, especially women’s rights to protest. I think the way that women’s rights have been threatened by the trans movement is deeply concerning to me, I’m very concerned about the law that was proposed obviously in Scotland, that the government took action over.
I think what happened in New Zealand was just terrible, that lady had every right to express her views in defence of women’s rights, it was a completely legitimate thing to do and the way that she was essentially abused by a baying mob was completely unacceptable’
