'Safe room' set up to protect performers from Kate Forbes at Edinburgh Fringe venue which may ban her over trans views
A major Edinburgh Fringe venue has come under fire after banning Kate Forbes due to her views on trans issues. Summerhall Arts were also mocked after it was revealed that a "safe room" was set up for artists when the Deputy First Minister spoke at a show there last week.
The scandal has triggered a free speech row as gender critical campaigners pointed out the hypocrisy involved in outlining a potential ban. Ms Forbes has publicly criticised gender reforms and also backs single-sex spaces for biological women, leading to an outcry from trans activists.
