Lionel Blair- I'm against gay marriage- and don't call me camp!
Lionel Blair says he “can’t bear” the idea of same-sex couples marrying and would definitely not consider himself to be camp.
The entertainer, 82, told The Mail: “Camp? Really? I prefer ‘flamboyant’, or ‘enthusiastic’. I’ve always been a bit over-the-top. “What about David Walliams, for goodness’ sake? Come on! There’s campness there and we all know that he’s not, well, you know…” On the subject of same-sex marriage, Lionel said: “I can’t bear it, I’m afraid. Look, if people want to live together, fine. And I do believe in civil partnerships. But marriage is between a man and a woman.” The actor and dancer added: “The world has changed. What has happened to my beautiful England?” John Barrowman’s same-sex kiss at last month’s opening ceremony of the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow did not go down well with Lionel. “What was all that about for goodness sake?” he complained. Lionel has also been hurt by suggestions that he’s gay. “It isn’t nice when you have a family,” said the father of three, who has been married for 47 years to his wife, Susan. Despite usually ignoring the jibes, Lionel revealed he once punched a man in front of his daughter, Lucy, at a cricket match organised by Sir Michael Parkinson after he was called a fairy. “He had to go to hospital!” Lionel exclaimed. During one pantomime performance in Stockport, as part of the act, Lionel asked a boy in the audience his name. The youngster retorted: “Touch my nuts and you’re dead!” The audience laughed but the comment was enough to make Lionel quit panto. “I realised I couldn’t do that any more. I can’t hug them. It’s madness. So I stopped,” he said. |
I never liked the coffin dodger anyway :hmph:
|
He is gay himself though isn't he?
|
This country is full of homophobes D: I honestly don't understand how people could have an issue with same-sex marriage.
|
:laugh: Really? Does his opinion even matter? I don't understand the problem with same sex marriage... what's the big deal? I'm happy that I actually get to marry properly :idc: People should just get used to the idea.
|
Could never stand him.
|
surely there's a home with a bed waiting for him?

Always though he was an egomaniacal twat!!!
I just don't get why people are so opinionated about what other people can or can't do ? It doesn't affect him so why's he even publicly stating his opinion on it. I mean it's only technically a legal document/agreement so why do people think they have the right to decide or even comment on what others do ? I just don't get it!!! And if they object because of the religious aspect associated with marriage...........well ****-em' anyway, ignorant, deluded religious twats! Most organized religions are so judgemental and archaic anyway. Hopefully within the next hundred years even the most ignorant people will have accepted that there is no god, no heaven, that it's always been fictional bullsh*t made-up to keep people living in fear and under control. **** Lionel and ignorant twats who think like he does. He'll be dead soon and hopefully his antiquated views will die off with him and his generation. |

He was being interviewed and was asked the question, should people hide their opinions in the name of political correctness ? Just because his opinion doesn't suit doesn't make him less entitled to it! |
