Cable Forum - View Single Post - Ann Widdecombe has died, murder suspected

**Chris** · Today, 10:42

Further discussion and speculation on X this morning suggests this actually isn’t about the Widdecombe tweet any more. Herbert lives in Scotland and seems to have been charged under the SNP/Green rather draconian Hate Crime & Public Order(Scotland) Act 2021. It seems unlikely that the tweet would breach that Act, however, once the spotlight is turned on some of his other activities, they’re … unpleasant. And quite possibly offences under that Act. He is part of a trans extremist group called Bash Back whose demands for direct action against critics of gender ideology are concerning. He’s also associated with people who believe that ‘If people don’t show love … show bullets.’ Charming.

Of course whether that Act itself is a reasonable piece of legislation or a draconian attempt at legislating to enforce a certain sort of left-wing social discourse in Scottish society is another matter.
