1Bitch, pleaz? Bradshaw?s homophobia allegation sooo unworthy 1 Citation Labour is getting desperate to portray the Conservatives as inherently nasty, deeply worrying and a danger to the UK. This is dangerously out of step with the general public?s thinking on the parties, and is a throwback to the time before the 1997 General Election. One particularly striking example is the utterly wrongfooted attempt by Ben Bradshaw and Chris Bryant, two ministers who also happen to be gay. They have been playing a peculiar game, in the run-up to Pride, of making vague and ther, technorati.com

In an Asylum. 1 Citation Most people are familiar with Sally Kern?s anti-gayrants and her fervent desire to imprison us and force ?ex-gay? torture upon us.

1 Citation I was in London yesterday at the Stonewall Education for All conference. I hadn?t realised that it?s the 40th anniversary of the Stonewall riots from which the organisation takes it?s name. Stonewall was founded in 1989 by a small group of women and men who had been active in the struggle against Section 28 of the Local Government Act.
