Marriage: Brighton Unrocked

The Coalition for Marriage, which opposes same-sex marriage, has mounted a campaign to stop a Tory MP who supported same-sex marriage from being re-elected in Brighton...

According to a report on Breitbart, the group now claims to have 1,500 supporters who have been urged to vote for “anyone other than the Conservatives” in the Brighton Kemptown constituency.
The group has its sights set on unseating Simon Kirby, who has been vocal on the issue of same-sex marriage...


No idea why Pink News are giving these fantasists the time of day.

Here's the original report on nutty far right website Breitbart.

It's laughable.

PS Coalition For Marriage have a whopping 1,800 followers on Twitter.

Update: According to Gscene all candidates currently standing in Kemptown & Peacehaven support gay marriage.

Brighton: Pink Sunshine

Brighton should appear on the shipping forecast every morning thanks to its sunny weather, the Prime Minister has said, as he mocked a Ukip councillor who blamed storms on gay marriage.

David Cameron taunted David Silvester, a Ukip councillor who said Britain had been “beset by storms” since the passing of new laws on gay marriage, saying Brighton, which has a large gay community, has a “superb microclimate”.

Simon Kirby, Conservative MP for Brighton Kemptown, said: "I am incredibly proud to represent a large gay community in my constituency. Would you agree with me that despite the views of some that the weather in Brighton is nearly always very sunny?"

Mr Cameron replied: "You are quite right - Brighton does have this superb microclimate that people should be encouraged to take advantage of.

"You stand up for all your constituents with great vim and vigour and I think in reward it would only be fair if Brighton Kemptown was actually put in place on the shipping forecast somewhere between Dover and Wight. I think we should get a reflection of this every morning."



Simon Kirby is Fagburn's MP.

Kirby is a former anarchist and now a Tory, I wish him dead - and he never replies to my emails.

Tories: Stop Section 28!

A Tory MP has sent out a press release saying he doesn't like a new Russian law which forbids "promoting" homosexuality and other deviant lifestyles, Fagburn can exclusively reveal.
"That was our idea," he said.

Update: Person makes silly joke about stupid Tory MP on Twitter, police called - a fool writes for Pink News.

Edit: Apparently this "death threat" - which it clearly wasn't - is national news!
Welcome to the new climate of hysteria.
And there was I thinking 'wasting police time' was a crime.
