Swinney and State Sponsored Abuse
Ash Regan said in the chamber a couple of weeks ago that there was state sanctioned abuse happening in Scotland. This was dismissed by the FM. Marion Scott (@ladymcbeth2) has shown that the FM is out of touch with what’s going on in 🏴. This is foul. pic.twitter.com/4w7mKVvIYE

The Scottish Prisons Service (SPS) is an arm of the SNP Scottish Government led by John Swinney.
So it is accurate to say this policy of allowing male SPS officers (ie males who self-ID as women) to search female visitors amounts to state sponsored abuse.
