"A Lot Of Trans Activists Hate Women!" Alex Phillips on JK Rowling's "Misgendering" Clash

JK Rowling has been reported to the police by trans broadcaster India Willoughby over “misgendering” her on social media.

The Harry Potter author became embroiled in an online row with Willoughby, in which she referred to the transgender newsreader, Loose Women host and former Big Brother contestant as a “man” and with “he” pronouns.

Willoughby, who was born male and underwent gender reassignment surgery in 2015, made a complaint to police over Rowling’s posts on X claiming she had “definitely committed a crime”.

The broadcaster, who holds a gender recognition certificate, claimed to be “legally a woman”, although Rowling pointed out there was no law which compelled her to “pretend” that Willoughby was a woman.

TalkTV's Kevin O'Sullivan and Alex Philips are joined by commentator Benedict Spence to discuss the trans debate and the JK Rowling clash.
