Thought For The Day: Julian Clary

I don’t understand how people can be anything other than socialist. Even if I don’t know someone’s politics I can tell if I like them, and those I don’t like tend to be of the rightwing persuasion.

Julian Clary is this week's obligatory gayer in FT Weekend.

Interesting place to place this thought.
Though, like the equally socially liberal The Economist, FT Weekend shows a belief in mammon's magical powers doesn't necessarily mean you have to be a hate-filled bigot in all areas.
Mr Clary also seems pleasingly unambitious ("I’ve never really planned my life or career") and unconcerned with fame; "I’d welcome obscurity. I’ve always missed being anonymous, though there are implications for one’s ego. But it would be nice to waft around being delightfully ordinary."
What a jolly decent fellow he seems.
