IS THE CONSERVATIVE PARTY BEING LED INTO A SWAMP? HITCHENS OF THE MAIL THINKS SO.

On Friday I posted a story about the deviant pride parade and how David Cameron, the head of what passes for the conservative party here, made an apology for something 20 years ago concerning homosexual rights.  ?  Or as Drew correctly pointed out, extra special rights.

Well ... along came Gordon Brown, the Prime Minister, and he said that he was very proud of the gains and legislation with regard to queer rights.  He wished those who were taking part in (yesterday’s) odd-person parade well, but said he couldn’t attend due to security concerns. I’m pretty sure he said that.
Oh but ...  his wife would attend and march in his sted. 

At the time I thought, what’s with these two guys?  Are they one upping each other? I guess.  It’s the pink vote, dummy. 

Well, I didn’t post that one Friday because I’d already done a couple things on that subject and was afraid I’d overdue it.

Saturday just wasn’t my day and I left off posting anything and felt guilty for it.  Being the weekend when we get so many papers I figured there’d be lots to share today and oh boy. 

Going through The Telegraph I came upon this cartoon and and a very good editorial by Peter Hitchens on the subject in The Sunday Mail.

Just to ID for those who don’t know.  That’s supposed to be Brown on the left in red and Cameron on the right.

And then ... good grief Charlie Brown ....  or as WC Fields might have said. “Godfrey Daniels!” This story appeared in the Mail and again I was going to ignore it.  But .... how can this one be ignored?

Balls bans children’s ‘gay’ jibes as government cracks down on sexual bullying
By Brendan Carlin Last updated at 8:02 AM on 05th July 2009

A fresh move to ban children from using the word ‘gay’ as an insult was made by Schools Secretary Ed Balls last night.

He said insults based on sexuality should be taken ‘as seriously as racism’. His department is now set to publish new guidance to crack down on ‘sexist and sexual’ bullying.

But Tory MP Philip Davies condemned Mr Balls for producing ‘more politically-correct nonsense’.

THE REST OF THE ARTICLE IS HERE

Then there is this from Peter Hitchens.
Keep in mind, the Tories are conservatives.  Labour is the politically correct left.  The two might well be interchangeable on many issues.  Like sexually deviant behavior. Both are in favor of it and will defend to the death their agenda and the right to the use of the word Gay. Oh yeah. And extra special rights.

Dave, leader of the ‘Heather has two Mommies’ Party...

Let’s think of all the things the Conservative Party might want to apologise for.

Privatising the railways, joining the Common Market, loading the police with paperwork, devastating the Armed Forces with cuts, introducing the GCSE, flattening half of British industry by accident in the early Eighties, failing to oppose the Iraq War, sacking the brave miners of Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire who defied Arthur Scargill’s bullying mobs...I could go on. 

But no. What it has said sorry for is something called ‘Section 28’, which stopped local authorities from promoting homosexuality in schools.

David Cameron journeyed specially to a ‘Gay Pride’ event to kowtow to the sexual revolution and simper: ‘We got it wrong. It was an emotional issue. I hope you can forgive us.’

Forgive them for what? Section 28 resulted from a fuss over the appearance of books aimed at children, intended to spread the view that single-sex couples could bring upchildren without any disadvantage to those children.

I still remember the titles: ‘Jenny Lives With Eric And Martin’ and ‘Heather Has Two Mommies’.

Less than 25 years ago, only revolutionaries such as Ken Livingstone endorsed this sort of thing.

Mainstream politicians and newspapers alike were as doubtful about it as most people still are in their private thoughts.

Nowadays, opinion formers and MPs have been scared into conformity, and the unhappy majority have learned to keep quiet about their concerns, for fear of the Thought Police.

This supposedly wicked law was little more than an expression of opinion by Parliament.

Nobody was ever prosecuted under its provisions. Try as they may, the homosexual liberation movement have never produced evidence of any martyrdoms resulting from it.

What they still hate about it is that it was the last stand of those in British politics who were not cowed into silence or acquiescence by the sexual revolution.

They want to make sure that the victory of self-indulgence – which is what this is really all about – is irreversible.

That way, there is no chance that the stable married family, or the society it supported, can ever come back.

And guess who is helping them? Why, the party that is supposed to stand for conservatism.

How far into the swamp will the Tories allow Mr Cameron to lead them before they realise what he is?

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
