NETWORK Rail has banned an advertisement that read “I Love JK Rowling” in a row over the authors views on transgender rights.
The poster at Edinburgh railway station was reportedly paid for by a political opponent of transgender rights, bringing in a question of free-speech in the United Kingdom.
The Harry Potter author has been subject to ‘Cancel Culture’ over recent months after she claimed allowing individuals to self-identify as women could pose a threat to real women.
The author has denied allegations of transphopia, but the leftist anti-Free Speech woke world of Showbiz has been gunning for her ever since.

Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson who starred in the hugely grossing Harry Potter films have come out in support of transgender people and have distanced themselves from Rowling.
“I am astounded that they have found a way to take it down,” Keen-Minshull who funded the poster.
She told The Times of London:“We are in incredibly sinister times when an expression of love and solidarity is perceived to be hateful.”
Network Rail said in a statement: “The poster in question is against our code of acceptance for advertising in our stations owing to its political nature. We do not allow advertising that is likely to support or promote one viewpoint over another.”
