A straight man tried to throw punches at me and my partner at a gay bar last night. What surprised me was not the violence, or the aggression, it was how many lovely queer people were happy to hold my pint while we yeeted him out on the street. ❤️

The more anti LGBTQ news I hear, the more I think the UK could really do with a Queer persons strike. Every LGBTQ person in banking, teaching, art, tech, civil service...everywhere...just walks out. Maybe then people may see what it's like to choose when we do or don't exist.

Tweet deleted, because we are polite. However being an LGBT+ Conservative is not an oxymoron. Being LGBT+ doesn’t mean you have to support Labour or left-wing politics. There’s no rule book on how to be LGBT+. Straight people aren’t told what to think, we shouldn’t be either.

They recently had the courage to come out and I am so happy they have found someone special in their lives but also have been able to find who they are too. But you took what was a lovely moment for them both and instead of just being happy for them, you took it for yourself.
