Original Note:
The statement “this could lead to JK Rowling’s arrest” is straightforwardly false. A “hate crime” must have an underlying criminal offence, which is motivated by hate. But there is no criminal offence of referring to a male person (as India Willoughby is) as a man. https://www.cps.gov.uk/crime-info/hate-crime
