This week's chump on the stump

This week's chump on the stump award goes to Mr. Chris Grayling, shadow home secretary. Apparently, in his world, it's acceptable for B&Bs run by Christians to turn away gay couples. So why not blacks, Irish and dogs while you're at it Mr. Grayling?

I won't even begin to explain what's wrong with him legitimizing somebody's dumb prejudices, because that might just suggest it's not bleedin obvious. Nonetheless, it does seem that even after years of Cameron gloss, (and to be fair, quite a few prominent gay Tories), even yet, some of these creatures just don't get it.

As far as I'm concerned, on the basis of that performance, Grayling is not fit for high office.

  1. Agreed. I find it horrifying that a party who are almost certainly going to be in power in the next four weeks are explicitly endorsing discrimination based on sexuality.
