That's my local butcher. Andrew, now Amy I think. I used to play football with him. He's been living as a woman for a long time, last I heard he'd had an operation to finish the transition but he's been going downhill lately with drink. Don't know what this incident with the girl is about yet as they're not saying much but knowing him I wouldn't be surprised if he wanted to "mother" her rather than being abusive. It'll all come out so we'll see but he's bound to get a sentence for abduction whatever his reasons. If he's not actually got any male parts now will that mean he gets sent to a woman's prison?

Just glad the wee lass wasn't harmed.

Was he born a greengrocer or something?

 

Ridiculous hyperbole referring to him as a Trans-butcher.

Hadn't even considered that. Can confirm he's always been a butcher, as was his father before him!

Is this concentrated campaign against the trans community (whatever the fook that is) really a swipe at Nicola Sturgeon who has (erroneously from a political point of view) nailed her colours to the cause?

[Doug Tait]

Not so sure Mick. I saw a poll recently that showed more people disagree with her on the trans issue than support independence, Alex Salmond is definitely using her position as a stick to beat her since the poll results, as are others, but I think the majority really feel that the idea of self pronouncement on gender is going too far whether Nicola supports it or not.

I think that was my point.
