In reply to Kayla Beccy Bee. couldn't agree more !! I live in London now & I first read this in the Independent today , & it was only when I saw the story in in another newspaper (probably something terrible like The Daily Mail) that they mentioned that the poor victim was a trans woman.. How The Daily Mail, or whoever it was , thinks that that info was relevant is beyond me.

That pathetic tabloid piece of shit excuse of a paper should apologise for every front cover it’s printed in the last month. Race hate inspiring garbage. It’s ACA in paperback. F@#$ you Courier Mail.

What is the point of writing a story about a controversial headline if you are going to censor it? You should at least do your readers the courtesy of letting us see what the fuss is about. What do you take us for?

In reply to Paul Moore. It's sad to see, I live in Indonesia now and all of the girls call themselves ladyboys... :(

In reply to Paul Moore. Thanks BenJamyn - I was wondering why she would do that.

In reply to Paul Moore. Most likely because she was a new resident in western society, In Indonesia there isn't as much of a focus on political correctness when referring to a "Ladyboy or a Shemale" They call themselves that due to being constantly referred as that by westerners :/ Unfortunate :(

A new low for an already loathsome outfit. It says little about the mental health of Queenslanders that people still consume this poison on a daily basis.

Yes the editor should make a formal public apology for being transphobic and for the incorrect wording of the article.

The Courier-Mail has become a rag and has stooped to a new low.

Boycott Murdoch.

In reply to Gareth Ernst. Exactly! Once again, the Murdoch Media Empire proves that it is run by someone that is not a "fit and proper person" to hold that position.

This poor pathetic journalism make my whole self feel sick. The person responsible for this should be removed from his role and reeducated because there has to a be a level of respect for people and this fool clearly didn’t care who he hurt by publishing this absolute snot! I am so angry it makes my blood boil!
