It's good to see Fox do this type of thing.  People shouldn't be allowed to band around words like fascist and racist willy nilly.

I can see there being a huge culture and free speech battle in the coming years.

A lot of gay people have very much turned against Stonewall, which has always been a very dodgy group IMO.

That's interesting to hear, Pete.

One gay campaigner who I actually have time for is Peter Tatchell.  I believe he is a man of principle and speaks from the heart unlike many others who are motivated (IMO) by bitterness and grudge.

You can brand people racist and facist on this board no problem at all 🙁
