The actor said his female co-stars received “sexually explicit and violent” abuse on a daily basis while in the city
James McAvoy is one of the finest Scottish acting talents of his generation. The Glasgow-born star has built a stellar reputation on stage and screen over more than two decades.
It is shocking that one of our finest actors couldn’t wait to get out of his home town because of the racial and sexist abuse of his co-stars. His quotes are hard to read for anyone who views Scotland as a modern progressive country. We all have a duty to challenge attitudes we too often condone or turn a deaf ear to and call them out. Scotland is a great country but it can and must be better.
Add to that the meltdown at accident and emergency departments where almost two in every five people are having to wait longer than they should.
