JOANNA Cherry has rejected an apparent call from a fellow SNP MP for those who oppose the Scottish Government’s gender reform legislation to quit the party. Speaking to BBC Good Morning Scotland on Tuesday, Alyn Smith said politicians who stand under the SNP banner should be obliged to support the party's manifesto. The Stirling MP has previously criticised his colleagues over their opposition to the Gender Recognition Reform (Scotland) Bill. She said: “Self-identification was not promised in the SNP manifesto & our conference did not debate never mind back it. It reduces the requirement for gender dysphoria and lowers the age a person can change their gender from 18 to 16.
