An adult survivor of child abuse is sleeping rough outside the Scottish Parliament until former Labour leader Kezia Dugdale is voted off reality TV show I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here.
Dave Sharp, who was abused and raped at a Catholic residential school in Scotland as a child, said Dugdale had told him she would do everything she could to help him and other survivors of abuse and that her decision to enter the television show while the Scottish Child Abuse Inquiry was going on “hurt”.
He has pledged to remain camped outside the parliament for “the duration of the time she is taking part in a demeaning reality show in Australia for a handsome fee”.
