Let me just point out why Tubby's comment offends. By comparing those who do not agree with his pov with those who opposed gay rights Tubby isn't calling me homophobic. He is however, equating my opposition to his approach with those who opposed gay rights. People were murdered, beaten, and imprison...

Yes you clearly did. It is there in black and white. Are you really so ignorant of LGBT issues that you don't even realise how offensive that comment is?

What's offensive about it? What, I'm accusing you of being homophobic, or something? A slur to equate those who don't agree with your pov with those who opposed the gay rights movement.

It's being debated day in day out everywhere in the country.

The referendum should never have been called, I agree, it is a clusterfuck called by a colossally ignorant man, I agree. It will be a catastrophe. Yep.

Seriously, there isn't going to be a "coup" over this - if only because it is far too abstruse for most people. Agreed Anatoly. But why aren't MPs like Alexander in the media sticking up for Corbyn against Tory lies on student debt and celebrating electoral successes like you? I still don...
