Pride London: Ban This Filth!

Pink News.

Why ban anyone else when Pride London is now run by gay tories?

Pink News also has an obsession with Ukip, maybe to pretend they're not that right-wing.

Demonise the extremes, to butress the centre-right staus quo...

2015: Goodbye To All That

Kim Davis, gaymarriage, trans in the military, Caitlyn Jenner, the bathroom bill, the blood donor ban, blah blah blah... yes Zach, it was a very dull year.

But the earth stood still, as the White House turned rainbow!

There won't be a backlash, love, unless you count us all dying of being boring.

PS My imaginary friend, Sean Faye, wrote an interesting piece about how obsessing over the blood donor ban is a gay bourgeois folly.

Slight paraphrase, but the prime movers behind this waste of time all seem to be in LGBTory.

David Cameron: White Saviour Complex

From the ever fawning LGBTory fanzine that is Gay Star News.

And a big shout-out to the greatest self-appointed White Saviour of them all!

PS Apparently leading sorcerer, Pope Francis, could wave his holy papal magic wand and solve all this, too!

Bless.

Poppers Ban: Gobsmacked!

NB After a certain someone (ie me, obvs) pointed out this headline was stupid - I am prepared to wager £1 million and/or my virginity that nobody will be jailed for buying poppers - it was changed as if by magic to read 'selling'. The original title can still be seen in the URL

Surprised GSN and other gay media don't support a ban on this DEADLY CHEMSEX CRAZE!

                                *****************************

Selling poppers in the UK could land you in jail for seven years, according to new legislation being enacted by the Government.

Home Office Minister Mike Penning has reportedly said he is insistent that amyl nitrates, widely used in the British LGBTI community, must come under new legislation that bans ‘legal highs’.

Lawmakers are banning the drug under a ‘blanket ban’ on the production, distribution, sale and supply of psychoactive substances. This ban will cover many substances including laughing gas, salvia and vanilla sky, but alcohol, nicotine and caffeine are exempt.

The possession with an intent to supply poppers is seven years in prison.

Gay rights activists, as well as a committee looking over the bill, argued poppers are ‘not seen to be capable of having harmful effects sufficient to constitute a societal problem’.

David Bridle, managing editor at London gay scene magazine Boyz,* said at a meeting held last night (9 November) with the minister, LGBTI activists and the National AIDS Trust that it made sense for poppers to be regulated under current sex shop licensing and therefore continuing to be available to over 18 gay men as the sex tool they have been for over 30 years.

‘The minister was unmoved, even after I explained our Boyz readers and others in the gay community were “gobsmacked” this Conservative government (of equal marriage and other pro-gay policies) was banning poppers,’ he said...

Gay Star News.

Have to say I'm GOBSMACKED that this ridiculous bill hasn't collapsed under the weight of its own contradictions already.

* David Bridle is also an LGBTory.

Pride: If Only

Pink News.

Brighton Pride.

So why not ban these cunts?

Pro gay marriage and anti Russia - the two tickboxes of the new gay right.

Yay!

Fuck 'em.

PS Fagburn made a half-arsed half-cut attempt to kick over the gay Tory stall the first time they showed up at Brighton Pride, while screeching 'That's for Section 28!'.

Ivan Massow: So Hard

Ivan Massow has just launched a campaign to be selected as Conservative candidate for Mayor of London, yet here he is, sitting in the kitchen of his grand central London home – there is an Aga so large it could melt Greenland, and an island the size of… well, Greenland – telling me he has always found it harder to admit to being a Tory than to being gay.

Clearly he is not alone in this. Across the country there are people who would rather come out as gay than Conservative, and they’re completely heterosexual. “It’s always been a real problem for me because of the stigma it’s carried,” he says, very seriously. But Ivan, it’s not leprosy! “But it’s true! At the beginning of speeches I effectively have to apologise for being Conservative. Harder than coming out as gay was coming out as a Conservative.” ...

Daily Telegraph.

Dear reader, 

Can you help me - I've lost something.

The will to live...

Erm, can anyone tell me what Madame Massow means by this?

“Gay people are naturally quite conservative. Lots of gay people, they want low taxes and they don’t tend to use many state services [!] and they want to buy a house, and you know those things that they both get up to” – at this he puts his finger to his nostril and sniffs – “those things are quite Tory!”

If he means gay men and Tories both take a lot of cocaine, he moves in even more rarified circles than I thought.

PS The multi-millionaire, who is urging London businesses to pay a Living Wage, only pays his own campaign manager the minimum wage. Oops!

General Election 2015: Those Celebrity Gay Backers In Full

Conservatives: Christopher Biggins.

Only patron of LGBTory who's not an MP!

Though they can also count on Ivan Massow and David Starkey*, too!

What a right bunch of right-wing gay cunts, eh?

Lib Dems: Patrick Smugtwit?

Probably.

He is Britain's most boring wet liberal poove.

And it's a family affair!

Green: Peter Tatchell.

And who better to dispel the myth that the Greens are all a bit nutty, than the publicity shy campaigning celeb?

Pete's probably said somewhere that he founded the Green Party, if not Planet Earth itself.

Bless.

Labour: Owen Jones.

No, really, he is. Trust me on this one.

SNP: Alan Cumming.

Was often wheeled out during the 'Yes!' campaign.

But like their most famous celeb supporter, Sean Connery, Mr Cumming is an ex-pat. Oops!

'England for the English...' etc etc.

Ukip: Morrissey.

"I nearly voted for Ukip. I like Nigel Farage a great deal," he told Loaded in 2013.

"His views are quite logical – especially where Europe is concerned."

And La Mozza's views are highly logical, too.

She loves England so much she's spent much of the last 20 years living abroad in tax exile, cos it's been flooded with foreigners, innit?

Silly old queen.

* Dr Starkey threatened to do a big queeny flounce and leave the country if Cameron didn't win the 2010 General Election. Paul O'Grady - a man Fagburn much admires - has said he'll leave if the Tories win again this time. It's usually the most unbearable right-wing shits who do this - I am unaware if anyone has actually carried it out.

PS If you decide how to vote because of something a famous person has said, may I implore you not to vote tomorrow?

Update: Undecided/Undeclared - Will Young. Former politics student Will Nice-But-Dim offered his astute analysis to Digital Spy; 'I don't know, it'll be a hung parliament and it all just feels like a wet fart.'

Fagburn: Film Of The Year

This heart-freezing true story of Lesbians And Gays Support The Right-Wing (LGSR), tells how a group of Tory gaylords infiltrated our movement, and, during capitalism's greatest crisis in almost a century, got people to obsess about gay marriage and Russia instead. A lesson from history.

'A real feel-good movie that's so politically banal we'll have to invent an award for it!' Attitude.

Roger Helmer MEP: Happy Ending?

The Sun.

LGBTory. - who neglect to mention that Mr Helmer was a Conservative MEP for 13 years.

PS Fagburn is more than happy for anyone to pay for sex, and does not approve of this outing and sexual shaming, but thinks it's always pleasing to see a right-wing homophobic cunt make a total dick of himself.

LGBTory: Eh?

PS If you have the misfortune to be at Reading Pride tomorrow, don't forget to sport one of Fagburn's equally witty and ribald stickers; 'HURRY UP AND DIE YOU GAY TORY SCUM!'

Gay Tory Watch: Poor Richard

Former deputy mayor of London Richard Barnes claimed his Facebook account was hacked after naked self-portraits appeared. The 65-year-old Conservative councillor for Hillingdon said he had not even seen the photos, which show the nude lower body of a naked man clutching an iPhone in front of a bedroom mirror.
The snaps appear to have been uploaded to his personal Facebook page before being swiftly deleted.
Websites including trendingcentral.com speculated the images may have been automatically uploaded using the iPhone’s iOS Facebook app.
But Mr Barnes told Metro: ‘[It was] utterly and totally a mistake. I’ve been hacked into. I’ve no idea [what happened]. I’m annoyed and shaking with anger.’
‘I’m a 65-year-old gay man on his own… It’s not the sort of thing I do. Do you really think I would be that f****** stupid after 30 years in politics?’*
He said he had a ‘lot of friends on Facebook’ and would not be quitting the website.
Mr Barnes, who served as Boris Johnson’s deputy between 2008 and 2012, said he was alerted to the images by a friend in the US and that it had all been ‘sorted out’.

London's Metro.

Another day, another scandal - is there no end to gay Tory misery?
The Daily Mail is tying up itself in knots over what can be said here; are the photos of Barnes, did he upload them by mistake, was his account hacked?
The Daily Star has some - sadly pixilated - "dick pics".
Amusingly, Fagburn understands Richard is known in City Hall as "Dick".

Comment: Even if it is Dicky, it's not illegal, and wanting sex isn't wrong. Basically, who cares?

* Fucking, probably. Hard to be sure.

• Interview with Tony Grew for Pink News in 2008, when Barnes was appointed Deputy Mayor of London.

PS Don't forget to book your tickets for the fun-packed Conservative Party Pride Conference Dinner (Supper, surely?) at Harvey Nicks in Manchester next week!

"Cost: £35 each Evening includes 3 course dinner with wine also enjoy shopping time with 10% discount!

"Guest Speaker: LBC Radio Host, Blogfather and West Ham fanatic, Iain Dale."  

Let's just hope Mrs Dale behaves herself and doesn't start beating up any pensioners again, eh?
Then it's on to G-A-Y - but don't worry, LGBTory have their own private entrance and dancefloor, so you don't have to mingle with the riff-raff.
Or risk getting beaten up by one of them.

Marriage: The Great Liberal Media Cover-Up

On 17 July, the Marriage (same sex couples) Bill received Royal Assent, having passed its final hurdles in the House of Lords and amendments proposed accepted by the Commons. You may well have missed this monumental event. After all the trouble and division stirred up in the early stages, once the groundbreaking legislation was passed interest, not least from the Press, died away.

Conservative Grassroots, a small group within the Tory party, had plentiful publicity when they gathered together just 15 former Conservative constituency Chairmen to write a letter to David Cameron opposing equal marriage.

However, when over 500 current local Conservative Association Chairmen, Deputy Chairmen, officers and activists signed a letter supporting the Prime Minister, it hardly got a mention. Opinion polls consistently show the majority of the public support same sex marriage, with even larger numbers among younger people.

Now some on the fringe of the Tory are claiming the fall in numbers is due to the modernisation of the Conservative Party, and in particular its support for same sex marriage. This could not be further from reality.

There may be some older members lost due to policies such as gay marriage. But the fact is that membership of all political parties has been falling for decades and these memberships fluctuate according to which party is in government, and various other factors....

Matthew Sephton, chairMAN of LGBTory, writing for the Telegraph.

It's odd that some gay Tories people think there was some grand conspiracy for the meeja not to give much coverage to the gay marriage bill being given Royal Assent.

That's cause this was a mere formality - the big news, as with any new law, was when the Commons finally voted it through.

You may have noticed endless never-ending coverage about this - and from the moment Cameron first floated the idea.

Mr Sephton is correct though that some gave the anti-gay marriage letter from Conservative Grassroots lots of coverage and all but ignored a pro-marriage letter from other Conservative Party activists.

Mainly this can be seen in... The Telegraph!

PS Think this article may only be online, also worth noting their readers can't leave comments here...

Nigel Evans: Andrew Pierce Writes

Right on cue and scummy as ever, The Daily Mail's resident gay Uncle Tom, Andrew Pierce, tries to go dirt digging on Nigel Evans.
He doesn't find any.
There are no real revelations here; much of the information was in Evans' coming out piece in the Mail On Sunday in 2010.
Loved his mum, loved Thatcher, never married, never had a long-term boyfriend, deeply closeted, voted against some gay equality legislation, allegedly prompted to come out "when an unnamed Labour MP threatened to go public about his sexuality", blah blah blah.
The only thing that was news to Fagburn was this;  

The first public suggestion that Evans was living a lie came in an article in Private Eye in 1993, which said he had been seen ‘canoodling’ with a young man in his ground-floor flat near Victoria in central London. Evans angrily telephoned the editor Ian Hislop to deny the story, but the report was well sourced and there was no retraction or apology.

If true, this reflects pretty badly on Private Eye.
Oh and there's this;

For many years, his homosexuality was one of the worst-kept secrets at Westminster. He counted among his friends Paul Burrell, who was Princess Diana’s butler and has a colourful private life.

And on that bombshell...

Like many papers, the Mail also seem rather keen on publishing photos that make Evans look slightly ridiculous.

PS Today's Daily Mirror headline; 'Nigel Evans: Rape accused Tory uses make-up to disguise forehead bruise as he faces cameras to deny claim'.
Please drop me a line if you can see how this is relevant to anything.
[Update: Tuesday's Sun lays on the innuendo; 'Bruise on my head came from Chinatown rub-down']

PPS And in other gripping gay Tory news, Mr Pierce claims Christopher Biggins is a new patron of LGBTory. 
He also slips in a joke about "fags", but it's okay, he's saying that as a fag himself.

Clause 28 2.0: LGBTory Tell Us A Story

The Pink Paper's Peter Lloyd - officially the most hilariously hopeless gay journalist in the UK - has got something of a scoop!

"The Chair of LGBTory - the Conservative Party's queer division [!!! Fagburn] - has slammed an article which suggested the coalition government was introducing a Section 28-style guideline for schools.
"As reported in The Sunday Telegraph yesterday, Education Correspondent Julie Henry wrote that there are plans to "protect children from inappropriate teaching materials and learn the nature of marriage and its importance for family life and for bringing up children..."

Ah, the chair of LGBTory, eh Peter?
Well, he would say that, wouldn't he?
What did you expect this gay Uncle Tom to say exactly?
So what did he tell you?

"It's a total non-story. Funding agreements under the last government had exactly the same wording. It's in the Education Act 2000 section 148 and the exact wording is copied into the funding agreement..."

Really?
Both the relevant clauses are quoted - in full - at the end of the Telegraph piece.
Shall we compare and contrast?

Sex and Relationship Education Guidance, July 2000

Pupils should be taught about the nature and importance of marriage for family life and bringing up children. But the Government recognises that there are strong and mutually supportive relationships outside marriage. Therefore pupils should learn the significance of marriage and stable relationships as key building blocks of community and society. Care needs to be taken to ensure that there is no stigmatisation of children based on their home circumstances.

Free School Model Funding Agreement and Academy Model Funding Agreement, July 2011

"The Academy Trust shall have regard to any guidance issued by the Secretary of State on sex and relationship education to ensure that children at the academy are protected from inappropriate teaching materials and they learn the nature of marriage and its importance for family life and for bringing up children."

The new funding agreement stops there - check it here.
So it's not "exactly the same wording", is it?
The Tories have decided not to include these all-important sentences;

"But the Government recognises that there are strong and mutually supportive relationships outside marriage. Therefore pupils should learn the significance of marriage and stable relationships as key building blocks of community and society. Care needs to be taken to ensure that there is no stigmatisation of children based on their home circumstances."

Perhaps Pink Paper and LGBTory could explain why?
One can only presume they don't think they matter?

Conservatives: Conference Pride.

Sorry, I've been very busy organising this event tonight.
Conference Pride!
Doesn't it look spiffing?
Come along to Velvet tonight and meet the chaps - there's free drinkipoos.
And George O's popping by with some bloody good charlie.
Please don't bring any oiks!
Back here tomorrow...

Update: Queer Resistance North West held a rather noisy protest outside Velvet Monday night.

David Starkey: In Unhappier Times

Another day, another David Starkey story. This from the eminent human rights barrister and professor Conor Gearty, who writes of a TV debate in the late 1980s in which he was pitted against the historian and patois-hating riots doomsayer. The debate, on a programme chaired by Jonathan Dimbleby, "involved me taking a civil libertarian line critical of the Thatcher government, and Starkey saying things weren't at all bad", Gearty writes. "Then an incredible thing happened. Starkey came out on TV – declared himself gay, but unpersecuted. Dimbleby turned, delighted, to me: 'So what do you make of that, then, Dr Gearty, ah ha?' ... Clearly they all knew it was coming, a fab scoop on as-live TV. Then another amazing thing. Starkey didn't know me, had never met me, but had listened to enough of what I had said to detect an Irish accent ... 'Now Conor, like me, comes from a poor background ...' he began to proclaim, on no basis other than how I spoke. So there you have it: an obsessive self-publicist and casual maker of racist assumptions, even then, over 20 years ago."

From The Guardian Diary.
Note to younger readers: David Starkey was once "Chairman" of TORCHE, the Tory Campaign For Homosexuality Equality.
Though seeing as Starkey was unpersecuted, clearly he thought equality had been achieved some time before.
At the time of the above interview it was called Conservative Group For Homosexuality Equality.
They are now LGBTory - and they're still cunts.

Update: David Starkravingmad keeps right on digging in an unthink-piece in The Daily Telegraph on Saturday.
