Over the past week, there has been lots of Tory blogging about gay politics, and the consensus seems to be the mark of true progress is when identity politics cease. The other side doesn't seem to get it. To paraphrase an old poster, "Labour call them gay. We call them British".

Take Ben Bradshaw and Chris Bryant. Two gay ministers are appalled that gay people are voting Conservative, cast unsupported accusations of homophobia at the Tory benches, and have threatened that gays will "rue the day" they turned their backs on them (can I pretend no pun intended?).

The BBC think that there are three gay cabinet members, but that includes the unelected Mandy, leaving two gay MPs in the cabinet (Bradshaw and Nick Brown). There are also two (Duncan and Herbert) in the (smaller) Conservative shadow cabinet. As the Broon would say, there are 0% more gay MPs in the Labour cabinet.

We all have a long way to go, but to treat gay people like idiots, and threaten that they'll 'rue the day' they exercised their democratic right duty to kick out this no-hoper government, would be considered homophobic from the mouth of a straight person.

So it takes a certain brazen dishonesty for Bradshaw to accuse us of homophobia. Then again, it takes a certain brazen dishonesty to be a Labour minister.

The row over public expenditure has been hotting up lately, and KeepRightOnline has been KeepingOurMouthsShut until something more evident came to light about Brown's lies. Well, Fraser Nelson delivers a blow to Browns Lies today, in actually costing the cuts.

The fact is that while Gordy B talks a big game about Labour having raised the top rate of tax to avoid public spending cuts, the figures he spouted at PMQs recently just don't add up.


You cannot keep lying to the voters, Brown. I hear in the not too distant future, the public bellowing that terse mantra attributed to your dear chum Sir Alan.

"You're Fired!"

KeepRightOnline presents our brand new video, entitled, "Labour Lies".

Enjoy!
