Rochdale Council has been accused of pandering to bullies after postponing three drag queen reading events at its libraries.
There has been continued backlash against Aida H Dee, known as “The Storytime Drag Queen”. Dee was meant to read in Rochdale, Middleton and Heyward.
The council claimed the shows were postponed due to a risk assessment. Other events in Bristol, Norfolk and Reading have all been disrupted by protesters.
They claim the events sexualised the children that attended. The UK-wide initiative to have the drag queen storytime hour started seven years ago.
