Why we must all stand with JK Rowling
04/02/2024
Humza Yousaf's Hate Crime Act is extraordinarily illiberal and dangerous. It is an unhinged assault not only on free expression, but also on common sense and scientific fact. This is why Rowling's revolt matters. She is standing up for reason, for sanity and for liberty in the face of a law that wants to compel us to lie. Let's hope her bravery inspires many more people to keep speaking the truth. They cannot arrest us all.
