Chris Gayling

This is not a matter of Grayling standing up for what he believes in, if it was he wouldn't have voted for the legislation he was speaking out against. Right? If this was a "matter of principle" Grayling would have resigned on a "matter of principle" when he refused to vote with his Party. Oh wait. Instead he has shown himself to be a hypocritical careerist toad, biting the bullet and swallowing his beliefs for a sniff of power. It's a mess and safe to say, even if he clings on for the next five weeks, he won't be won't be taking up an office anywhere near Horseferry Road.
Over promoted, gaffe prone and completely lacking in any any savvy-ness, Grayling has been a walking shit-magnet ever since he was given the Shadow Home Office brief. He was a great attack dog but that doesn't mean he is suitable for high office. TB doesn't believe he is homophobic, but he should have been more shrewd. For better or worse, he may well have been standing up for Christian rights, but he must have realised this close to an election that people would be on the look out for any excuse to piss on the Tory bonfire. An idiot rather than bigot. Grayling is clearly not A-team material and has ruined an otherwise perfect eve-of-the-election-weekend. Well done.

But this is not the first time Grayling has caused a sharp intake of breath for TB. He sums up everything wrong with the authoritarian, "hang em and flog em" tory-ism. Want to see this hard streak? Just look at his cosying up to the likes of Alan Johnson whenever the D word is mentioned.

So we have established that Grayling is a tit. But that doesn't give an excuse for the scummy fringe of the left to bring out their classic attacks on gay Tories. The LGBT Labour movement should take a long reflective moment before they carry on with how they have begun today. Take one of their most vile, aggressive and disgustingly bigoted members Kev Peel for example.

Young Kevin has used today to spread some of his more
ignorant and inflammatory ideas
. He has suggested that all gay tories are "self loathing, repressed and rather homophobic". Sorry but WTF?

Since when does who someone beds determine their entire political outlook? Why should someone's sexuality, unless standing purely on these particular issues, determine how they vote? What goes on in the bedroom is nothing to do with the state, a political party or even a hotel owner. Peel should apologise for the disgusting slurs. His amateur and immature arguments should be immediately disowned by LGBT Labour and the Party as a whole. If they are not they are showing a fascinating insight into the homophobic mindset of their party.

Yes you read that right, to suggest that someone should be enslaved by their sexuality and make sure it determines every single decision they make is an homophobic outlook. It shows they feel that somehow a gay person is unequal from someone who doesn't have to make every decision based on their sexuality. Grow up Kev. 


UPDATE: A gay Tory gets in touch to say of Kev: "It's disgustig, similar to what Ben Bradshaw comes out with. I like how he's now trying to portray himself as a 'minor labour person' and his views are just his own. So were Graylings but he's still insulting thousands of gay people who vote Tory."

Nope, no matter how much you like it, no matter how good it is for you, I still can't like broccoli.

You see, Idid,nt read any of this like that. I just thought Grayling was saying my house my rules, as if it were a group of football supporters who looked a bit unruly or nazi re-enacment group that might upset the neighbours. I have the right to choose.

You're wrong.

Grayling was right on B&Bs specifically which are effectively peoples homes.

Oh, Tory Bear, I do wish you'd stop pussy-footing around and start to tell us what you really mean...

Grow up, TB.

Chris Grayling is one of the best that the Tories have, and (even if he's been forced to 'clarify' his point), he has at least had the decency stood up for the liberty of the people, against the authoritarianism of Labour and the rest of the PC bunch.
