'Hatred is hatred': Chief Constable hits out at discrimination

People making threats over 'what they wrongly believe happened in a school' says Gary Roberts

The chief constable has hit out at people making threats towards others over 'what they wrongly believe happened in a school'.

It follows concern over the reaction to the Relationships and Sexual Education Curriculum, with QEII High School sent 'demands for the arrest and execution of staff members' after inaccurate reports of a drag queen at the school.

Chief Constable Gary Roberts, in a Tweet, says 'however it is "justified" hatred is hatred'.

Meanwhile, the Manx Labour Party has called for institutions to 'combat hatred aimed towards the LGBT community' due to what it calls 'a time of rising tension and misinformation'.
