'The First Feminist': JK Rowling ramps up trans rights row with Nicola Sturgeon in sarcastic post
Ms Rowling, who has been threatened with death by trans activists for her views, said: "Nicola Sturgeon's Scotland: A place where an equalities officer feels free to declare in public how much he wants to beat up non-compliant women.
"Given the sensitive nature of the subject, there is an onus on everyone involved to discuss it in a respectful and civilised way – not least an equalities officer for the SNP." Ms Sturgeon said in response: "I've spent my entire life campaigning for women's rights and I'm a passionate feminist with lots of evidence behind that."
