Transgender action to be launched



A Tasmanian transgender person will seek an injunction to halt two election advertisements she says incite hatred against sexual and gender minorities.

Martine Delaney will lodge two complaints with the Tasmanian Anti-Discrimination Commission, calling for a halt to campaign material that claims gender reassignment and same-sex marriages will destroy society.


In an attack on Greens policies, farmer Roger Unwin has published newspaper advertisements saying gender reassignment and recognition of intersex people will "ruin our families and society".
