The SNP will use it to their own advantage, we won't be able to say anything against the SNP or supporters but most of the hate in Scotland comes from the SNP and Supporters. The independence campaign is based on hate for the English.

Free speech is a democratic right in any democracy, stating biological facts is not a hate crime, e.g. A man can NEVER become a woman. A dress and makeup does not define a female. When borm male or female, you die male or female.
