Our LGBT organisation has been well and truly SCAMMED by a bogus ugadan Asylum Seeker, on whom we lavished support, money and indefatigable advocacy – fortunately all in our individual capacity, to protect the organisation.

he was balied after much personal campaigning oin his behalf, to the address of two lesbian women who, after some 10 days, discovered that he had left their TV on the Adult Channel and had downloaded masses (we are talking 50+) heterosexual porn videos, not a single gay one amongst them, visiting almost 100 hetero porn web sites and infecting their laptop in the process.

We are not sorry to be compassionate human beings, we are just glad to have learned a valuable lesson in good time, before taking our support all the way.

@trevmax: so, in 1939, you’d've been campaigning against the UK taking Jewish refugees, right? If not, then what’s the difference? Germany made Germany’s laws, and we had no right to interfere up to the point we had serious grounds to believe they’d invade the UK, right? Even then, the Jews were German citizens, so why should they have been our problem?

(note to the seriously hard-of-thinking – of course I believe the UK’s actual attitude towards Jewish refugees in the 1930s was shameful, as is our attitude to LGBT refugees today)

it’s terrible, but the UK cannot and should not try to solve the world’s problems. we are no longer an imperial power. other countries make other countries’ laws and we have no right to interfere. if people break the law in iran and escape to the UK then they should be sent back to Iran. beyond that it is not our problem
