🚨NEW: When discussing Britain's demographic circumstances, we often look to the census. But that information tells us more about the past, than the future. To see the Britain of tomorrow, we must look to the children of today. ✍️: @charliecolecc 📖: pimlicojournal.co.uk/p/for-a-vision…

Mr Yusuf, For the avoidance of doubt, I pleaded guilty in 1987 to an offence of gross indecency under laws that discriminated against homosexual men. The age of consent was then 21 for gay men & 16 for heterosexuals. Those discriminatory offences no longer exist. Also, the individual who was 17 was ‘wired for sound’ by Robert Maxwell’s paper. He said on the tape he was over 21. Unfortunately, there was a lacuna in the law in 1987 which provided heterosexuals with a defence. If heterosexuals believed those they had sexual relations with were of consensual age, & the jury believed this, then they could find the accused not guilty. No such defence pertained to homosexuals. If the younger person was under 21, the offence was committed. I did not realise this lacuna in the law existed until my lawyer, Sir David Napley, informed me. I then told him immediately I would plead guilty. Parliament has since recognised that these laws were unjust. Under the so-called “Alan Turing law”, people convicted of consensual homosexual offences under repealed legislation can have those convictions disregarded & pardoned as part of righting historic wrongs. Also, what I did was neither gross nor indecent. It was done in private and between consenting adults. I have never hidden any of this. What you are doing is attempting to weaponise a historic conviction under discriminatory laws to discredit me because you disagree with my views, & blind loyalty. That is your choice. My point remains unchanged: politicians should respect the police’s request not to speculate during a live murder investigation. Personal abuse is no answer to a principled argument. You are free to criticise me, & to answer a principled argument with personal abuse & character assassination - however unbecoming - but personal vilification is no substitute for civil debate. Ann Widdecombe believed in decency, free speech & the rule of law - which is why she stood by me and offered me practical, private & public support throughout my ordeals. I rather think she would have expected better.





Larp till the Larp becomes Real - @LukeJahn_



Millions more people face having to work until they are 68 before being able to claim their pension under plans to bring forward a rise in the state retirement age, @oliver_wright reports The state pension age is due to gradually rise to 68 between April 2044 and April 2046. It will reach 68 for those born on or after April 6, 1978 However, Treasury officials have told the Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR), the government’s fiscal forecaster, that the “current policy” is to bring the increase in the retirement age forward by at least seven years, to 2037 This would mean that about five million people who are aged between 49 and 55 at present would have to work for an additional year before being eligible for their state pension, costing them about £12,500 The decision would save the government about £6 billion a year from 2037 compared with the present timetable Last year ministers launched a review of the state pension age led by the Government Actuary’s Department and Suzy Morrissey, deputy director of the Pensions Policy Institute. It is due to make recommendations on when the pension age should rise before the government legislates for any change. Ministers have insisted no final decision has been taken However, in a response to the OBR, the Treasury said the government’s intention was to bring forward the pension age rise towards the end of the next decade The OBR said: “We assume that the state pension rises to 68 in 2037-39. The Treasury has confirmed to us that this is the government’s current policy position, rather than the legislated increase set in the Pensions Act 2007.” thetimes.com/article/b74703…

We do not what others can't, but what others won't.







So much hate for the Northern Line, but it's the best one.



Harvey, I’m the mum of a 17-year-old. I know how vulnerable they are. You say you believed he was over 21. That’s your account. But what I find so disturbing is that you’re still presenting yourself as the victim. No legal argument or historical revision will ever persuade decent people that this is something to defend rather than deeply regret.



a lot of "British food bad" boils down to classism








Harvey, You pled guilty to paying a 17 year old boy for sex. When you were 39. This is “disgrace”. Given you claim to have “nothing to apologise for” I feel compelled to inform you: *this conduct is still illegal today*. You went to your party’s client press to condemn Nigel - who was also grieving for Ann - for asking questions that are now totally vindicated. All to score a cheap party political point. This is “depraved”.
