CROSS POST FROM WWW.LGBTNETWORK.EU http://www.lgbtnetwork.eu/?p=5123 LGBT Labour had their AGM in the Greencoat Boy pub near Westminster last night. Now as a non political organisation, that is something we generally wouldnt care about. However when participants at the AGM went to get served at the bar, the manager refused them. Not only, but he then stated that he would have refused the booking if he had known it was an LGBT group that had made the booking! Here is the twitter feed from LGBT

UPDATE: The lies of Pink News

Published on 2010-03-28 12:39:00

Since the LGBT Network's email about twenty minutes ago to Pink News, they have now changed the headline to put the word wedding in inverted commas; who are they quoting? Anyway nice work Pink News, you now report on issues of same-sex relationships in the same way that the Daily Mail does, by describing our relationships in inverted commas. We are full, equal citizens, Pink News, and our relationships should be afforded the same respect as any one else's. For goodness sake why do we have to ex

Dear Pink News,I am writing to complain about the use of the term 'gay wedding' in the above article. What Chris Bryant had was a civil partnership, which as you well know is not a marriage or a wedding. For example adultery is not grounds for dissolution of a civil partnership, as it is for marriage. There are too many differences to properly list here, but the fact that you would call it a marriage is disingenuous and a downright lie to the gay community. Not only, but the term 'gay mar

Steven Purcell, Organised Crime and the Fatal Blow

Published on 2010-03-08 16:15:00

Purcell has now apparently fled the country; to where? One can only guess. They say it's Australia, but our bet is that right now he is sitting in the dark corner of a Costa Del Sol cocktail bar, sharing a bad sangria with his old pal, Tenerife Tony. Steven Purcell could certainly blend in amongst the red faced British tourists on the Spanish coast, but a overweight, teary eyed, greetin faced Scotsman wandering around Bondi Beach is going to be noticed, and, hopefully extradited.

  Mark McDougall (26) and Kerry Robertson (18) You may remember the story reported by a variety of media sources in 2009 about a Council in Scotland who smashed a couples wedding hopes, claiming that the bride was 'not intelligent enough to get married'.  Kerry Robertson originally of Dunfermline, who lives with minor learning disabilities, was prevented from marrying her boyfriend Mark, as the know-it-all civil servants feared she didn't know what she was doing.

"Chemically dependant" Purcell swaps top Glasgow job for rehab

Published on 2010-03-04 12:23:00

The rate payers of the Glasgow Corporation will be forgiven for wondering what on earth their elected, well furnished, local government members are up to behind the Council's closed doors, doors of course which more often than not shut out us, their bosses. Steven Purcell, the camp-as-Christmas leader of Glasgow City Council, who ruled the city with a soft skin hand in a mauve glove, resigned over the weekend, citing "stress and exhaustion." What could have been the cause? He dumped his wife an

The Tower Block of Commons and the Arsehole Politicians

Published on 2010-02-14 13:59:00

Channel 4's Tower Block of Commons has shown Austin Mitchell MP as nothing short of an arsehole! The programme has shown up some Members of Parliament as nothing short of moaning, out of touch and pathetic examples of human beings. The programme started OK until Austin Mitchell showed himself as an idiot, refusing to go along with the rules by insisting that his wife come with him and that they be allowed to be provided with their own home on the council estate, instead of living with a famil

That is a gay Tory called Matthew Sephton who thinks he can top Hazel Blears in the general election. The comments from this PinkNews story on it are pretty funny.
