Peter Tatchell: An Outing

In a shock move, the controversial but publicity-shy gayhumanrights campaigner, Peter Tatchell, has said he will now out himself.
'I have been left no option but to try and get my face in the papers again,' he said in a press release.
'Yes, I am a rampant self-publicist and it's time someone stood up and said so.'
He continued.
'Even though I say I single-handedly gave birth to gay liberation in the 70s, I went back in the closet during the Bermondsey by-election in 1983.'
'I would now like to out myself as a hypocrite'.
Asked whether his media-hungry egotism was in any way responsible for the decline of grassroots left-wing gay activism, Saint Peter clutched a mirror and kissed it.
'Do you think Pink News and The Independent will run this?' he faxed. ''Only everyone else puts my stuff in the bin.'
