I was actually quite shocked

when he said he defended himself saying those things

No apology for being homophobic or at least an explanation of what he meant

Just "Yea it's fine for me to call gay guys bum boys"

20 years ago

is this relevant

From his response

yes

It shows a lack of capability to assess yourself

and improve

Not taking any accountability for your actions

i liked his response.

If I murdered someone 20 years ago

Is it suddenly fine now?

ah yes, great comparison

Well it's the principle

You need to say "Yea, I shouldn't have said that"

i'm not even going to engage with you PEP, second thoughts

absurd line of reasoning

Lmao cause you know I'm right

The amount of shit has been dragged up about corbyn from decades ago

But ofc all of that is relevant

But this isn't 🙂

You need to at least hide your hypocrisy

and you liking his response just shows you are either too simple minded to criticise anything that's not on your "team" or you agree with his homophobia and racism

which one is it 🙂

Bum boys is harmless

Maybe to you, but the leader of our country degraded a whole group of people?

How is that a good thing

A group that I'm a part of, and when he said it, it was 20 years ago when presumably he was a journalist and not an MP

Yea but you're not that whole group

Ok I'm gay now, am I allowed to say homophobia is wrong now?

It's such hypocrisy from people dragging shit that corbyn has done decades ago

but with Bojo it's fine

Brexit really has made our voters retarded in their tribalism

I think I should have some pork faggots for supper...

I'm saying that a member of the group is probably going to have more experience with this

Jack

I don't want to play the whole "my friends are gay" shit
