It is very unfortunate that a person who has made so much money from a series of children’s books and the materialism that accompanied them should now enter the political foray with out and out bigotry. It is also unfortunate that anyone should listen to her bigotry. However, it is the way of things at the moment that those who have so little understanding and empathy are the first to chunter day and night and as a result there are many who revel in that same chuntering.

The following neatly outlines the reasons why JK Rowling should not get away with her misguided contributions and should leave it to those who are enlightened and empathetic. She may believe she is making useful points. However, the damage created by her ignorance and lack of intention to apologise openly and back away, is ruining her once celebrated reputation.

Boycotting Hogwarts Legacy over JK Rowling’s transgender comments won’t achieve much – but it’s no surprise fans are considering it:
