This proposed legislation in Scotland appears aimed at challenging pretty much anything that might be regarded as offensive towards someone, regardless of the intent of the speaker, including actors and stand-up comedians using lines in a play or as part of an act, who could be prosecuted and face jail time if found guilty of hate speech. Seems pretty extreme. The Spectator is a conservative magazine (albeit a very good one) so it would be interesting to hear the other side. On the face of it it looks like an attempt to overhaul on a fundamental level how people think about communication, both day to day or in drama, literature etc.
