The Daily Mail's not sure which way to turn on this story; 'Be Prepared' for equality... The Scouts look to recruit more gay leaders and members'Is this about how you think all gay men fuck kids?
"Britain's best-known youth movement is going gay-friendly.
"The Scout Association has revealed plans to boost its number of gay members and leaders in a bid to banish the perception that homosexuals cannot sign up."
Really - so what actually happened?
"The half-a-million strong movement has released a video as part of the campaign - which will also let Scouts attend gay pride parades in uniform."
What campaign???
"Wayne Bulpitt, the association's UK chief commissioner, filmed a video offering support to an anti-bullying campaign led by gay rights charity Stonewall."
Oh, the one posted two weeks ago.
"In it he stated: 'Bullying is wrong on every level, not just for the person being bullied, but for the bully too.
"'In Scouting we believe that all young people, irrespective of their sexuality, gender, race, creed or background, have an equal opportunity to develop and to be themselves.'"
The Scouts' Association has come out against homophobic bullying?!
Whatever next?
