We don’t want to see that kind of thing

Intolerance blah blah hate posters blah blah hate literature blah blah.

An Aberdeen council candidate has branded two ‘anti-trans hate posters’ found in toilets at Duthie Park a ‘worrying example of intolerance’.

Martin Greig, who is bidding to represent Hazlehead, Queen’s Cross and Countesswells for a fourth consecutive term, asked city council officials to remove the posters after he was contacted by a constituent.

Intolerant how though?

The posters are critical of the Scottish Government’s proposed reforms to the Gender Recognition Act, which would make it easier for people to legally change their gender.

The plans have been fiercely opposed by campaigners who claim the move would put women’s sex-based rights at risk.

Oh that kind of “intolerance” – the kind that’s not intolerance at all. Funny thing: it’s Greig’s dishonest screechy over-reaction that’s actually intolerant. Women really do get to talk about our rights and what will put them at risk.

Liberal Democrat Mr Greig told Aberdeen Live: “It’s another worrying example of intolerance and closed minds and we don’t want to see that kind of thing.”

Admirably not-closed mind there!
