Harry Potter star savages JK Rowling as a 'bigot' and compares her to Andrew Tate over her trans views - despite STILL cashing in on the fame she brought him


The Harry Potter author, 59, has made headlines for her controversial views and has celebrated Supreme Court 's landmark judgment that trans women are not legally women.

Justices in London ruled last week that in the 2010 Equality Act, the definition of the term 'women' relates only to biological women, and Rowling reportedly helped fund the campaign group which brought the case. The Scottish government had argued that such people were entitled to sex-based protections, meaning a transgender person with a GRC certificate identifying them as female would count towards women's quota. The Supreme Court made it clear that trans people are protected under the gender reassignment provisions in the Equality Act and will be able to bring claims if they are discriminated or harassed.
