You’ve got to hand it to those Loose Women ladies – they certainly know how pee us all off. The latest being Coleen Nolan, who has compared gay rights to ISIS and managed to offend just about every gay man and woman under the sun. Quite rightly, fans are calling for the Nolan sister to be given the boot for her blatant homophobic remarks.

Discussing Ireland’s “gay cake” row, which saw a bakery found guilty of discrimination for refusing to bake a cake supporting gay marriage, the Loose Women panelist praised the store for sticking to their prejudices. Whatever, she’s a muppet, but when she argued that baking the cake would be no different to forcing Ashers Baking Company to bake a cake supporting ISIS the 60s pop star went from ignorant to criminally offensive.

“At the end of the day, if you went in there and two days later they said, ‘We don’t want to make your cakes because of our beliefs’, you’d just never go back to that shop and you’d probably say to all your gay friends, ‘Don’t go there, they’re anti-gay’, and boycott it,” she said to a bewildered panel made up of Janet Street-Porter, Jamelia and Ruth Langsford.


“What about if somebody walked in and said I want a cake and I want the whole Islamic State on it and how I support it and how I support them killing our people. Because it’s a business, do they have to make it? And if they turn around and say they’re not making it, we’d all applaud it.”

Jamelia said she thought the bakery’s religous beliefs “aren’t being taken into account” but assured she supports “equal right for everyone,” which is a pretty useless contradiction from the woman who says to speak her mind. Janet Street-Porter incorrectly said that Northern Ireland had legalised gay marriage and explained Gareth Lee, who placed the order, was testing out the law.

In Coleen Nolan shared a similar sentiment attacking gay adoption, admitting “there’s only so much I want to accept”.


Fellow panelist Jamelia caused a storm last month and in turn put an end to her proposed musical comeback by criticising the high street for catering to people above or below a certain size.


“I am all for celebrating people as they are – I think everyone has a right to be comfortable in their own skin, I think everyone should have access to lovely clothes – but I do not think it’s right to facilitate people living an unhealthy lifestyle, I really don’t. In the same way I don’t believe a size zero should be available, it’s not a healthy size for a woman to be.”

No we're not

[LukeB]

They need to axe Coleen tbh

[joeysteele]

Yes, long overdue being got rid of and I will never know why anyone like Coleen Nolan ever got on it in the first place.

[smudgie]

I believe the same comparison was put on here, nothing to do with being anti gay, more to do with it being a business and not being allowed to refuse anybody just because they went against your beliefs.
So, not so much homophobic as giving an example. Might be a bit extreme but she has a point.
As to sacking her, well, the clue is in the title of the show, Loose Women, meaning they discuss topcs that are in the news etc and give their own opinions.
Normally light hearted stuff, perhaps they could concentrate on that side of stuff, so as not to offend.

[MTVN]

^ Agree smudgie, I don't agree with her but I can see the logic to her point and she won't be alone in holding that view, the whole point of their show is for them to discuss their different views on stuff like this

[Braden]

Coleen came across very ignorant with that comparison, and it doesn't help that she's made prejudice remarks before in regards to gay rights.

imo I think the customers were right to be outraged by what happened. I find it completely unprofessional to deny them what they asked for. Giving them what they ask doesn't automatically make the business owners pro-same sex marriage/rights, it just means they're doing business.

It'd be like someone working in a sports shop and not allowing somebody to buy a Manchester United shirt because they support Liverpool. Using ISIS as an example is pretty disgusting, and I hope at one point Coleen looks back at what she said with shame.

Extreme comparison but I get the point she's making - I think the guy turning it into a news story to shame the company was more about him getting his revenge than anything else. Some people don't like gay people. I'm not really sure why or how the fact it was for a gay wedding would have come up, or why it ever did? I feel there's possibly more to this than meets the eye, maybe the guy walked in, kicked up a fuss, they refused him and he cried gay wolf.

[hijaxers]

Just get rid of the whole programme its totally outdated now and boring to watch , i stopped watching about 3 years ago as it had gone so downhill and its now in the cesspit !

[Dollface]

Do people still watch that crappy show?

[Z]

I actually think the program is still a good concept, it's just woefully run - panel shows which cover a variety of topics are great but it'd be nice if the panel didn't consist of morons whose other careers have stalled so they've turned to Loose Women as a safe haven. Jamelia had about 4 hits ten years ago. I don't care what her opinion is on anything. Get some more interesting people on there and it'll be fine.

Oh I can't be bothered with that show, if I want a narrow minded or otherwise bizarre perspective on anything I'll look elsewhere

Coleen has always been homophobic.

She said years ago she was against gay adoption because there's 'only so much she should have to accept'.
