The new Hate Crime and Public Order Act introduced in Scotland has sparked controversy and criticism from notable figures, including JK Rowling. The law aims to consolidate existing hate crime laws and create a new offense of threatening or abusive behaviour intended to stir up hatred on various grounds. However, Rowling and others have raised concerns about the implications of the law on freedom of speech and the ability to accurately describe biological sex.
JK Rowling recently took to social media to challenge Scotland’s new hate crime law, inviting police to arrest her if they believe she has committed an offense. In a series of tweets, Rowling highlighted the absurdity of the law and the impact it could have on the ability to accurately describe and tackle violence against women and girls. She emphasized the importance of being able to call a man a man and spoke out against the restrictions on freedom of speech imposed by the law.
Former Police officer Harry Miller joins TalkTV to review the implications.

BLAME SCOLOLAND !
Men have xy chromosomes, women have xx chromosomes. This cannot be changed. Grow up SNP.
Stupid is as stupid does.
If arrested, the cops will hate her expensive flesh eating lawyers!!!
I guess this is why Hadrian built the wall! The Scots wanted the SNP they can keep it!
However this has nothing to do with women. It's so you can't criticise Islam.
Labour will bring the new law to England and wales too
Let’s get real
This law is more about smuggling blasphemy laws through customs.
And of course it will only be used to protect criticism of a certain religion.
What about his racism ?
Support for JK Rowling and freedom of speech
Hate is a very subjective and abstract term as we've experienced for years now. The line should be around where it leads to actual crimes. Freedom of speech, opinions should be protected. Words and opinions should not be criminally persecuted so arbitrarily.
It's easy to reel off crimes that transgender folk have done to justify a prejudice – the reality is most transgender folk go through a challenging journey and need a bit of compassion – one of my friends is a trans guy and is so much happier in all he does now – at the end of the day that's what we want happy well-adjusted people who make a contribution to society – it may be outside JK Rowlings comfort zone however to go out of your way to target folk simply for who they are is rather self-indulgent – I would say to her save you vitriol for people who do wrong.
Sexual violence against girls is now allowed by law… how low have we gotten?
Scotland Sharia Law lol
Commonsense has gone missing in Scotland.
The SNP are ruining Scotland
JK is a hero!
Get that mad snp party out NOW
Amazing how 99.9% of the population don't agree with the new law….yet they have to concentrate on 1 world renowned writer for her opinions…..its as if you can expect another book out from this
Go Jo!!!!
I stand with JK Rowling
The malignant tyrant running Scotland is on a power trip. When will people wake up.
You couldn’t make it up.
J.K. Rowling is right we stand with her
JK Rowling is a heroine for standing against the nonsense the SNP government has brought in. Men cannot become women and women cannot become men, let’s seek cures for the insanity. 😂😂😂
I stand by JK Rowling 🙌🏻
JK Rowling is a real life heroine. We're so lucky to have her leading the way. Women everywhere will unite and support her 100% because she is on the side of reality, humanity, biology and truth. We need more people with clout, with power and with money to stand up for women against this despicable and disgusting misogyny.
Well said JK Rowling. Is Common sense now a Hate Crime?
On the subject of the police. I think the problem is that the recruiters appear to be favour university students who are often indocrinated by those institutions and, consequently often support laws.
The weird are pandered to.
