Disgusting.

[Holly Christmas]

Just read this...terrible.

[Katmieow]

Disgraceful.

[Abra]

That's absolutely awful. Hope he is okay and can recover from this.

[joeysteele]

This is despicable.
Sick.

It is awful to see anyone attacked like this.

Has anyone got any further information on it? Who the attackers were or footage or what happened? The newspaper reports are all the same and all very superficial.

Not calling him a liar, I don't know, but Cameron has a history as being a campaigner for more draconian hate speech laws and getting attacked for no reason, apparently, other than him being gay.

TBH, I don't even remember him... Maybe I dropped out that year. Might have to have a rewatch.

not acceptable

''homophobic''


who says he isn't beaten up for being a tory?



either way this is very awful of course

''homophobic''

Well, it's what he claims and there doesn't seem to be any more info on the incident so I guess that's the official line.

The UK has a **** ton of CCTV though, I would be interested in seeing the whole context and hearing from witnesses, but that would take actual journalism so not very likely.

A teenage girl was raped in broad daylight yesterday by a migrant. I think its because she was white.

[Christmas Dynasnow]

I don't remember him at all

Continuing, the "star" said: “But here’s what I realised: this isn’t just about me, or just about the LGBTQ+ community.

“It’s about every minority, every marginalised voice, everyone who has been told they don’t belong, the politics, the government, the people, they want to divide us but they will not win.

Er what?

Pure evil, I hope he recovers from this

Also, some SCREECHING hypocrisy in this thread

Feel free to quote it so we know what you are objecting to.

Sad news hope he is okay

[Merry Mockmas]

I'm glad that he is okay.

Have the police caught the person/people who attacked him?

They haven't even identified them

[Merry Mockmas]

They haven't even identified them

Okay, thanks for the information.:wavey:

I hope that they're caught soon.

Me too. But, doubtful.

Real policing has gone the way of real journalism, sadly.

Sad, but true.

I'm as right wing as they come but if someone has had a kicking purely for their sexuality then that is disgusting and, if that's the facts, the offenders should get a severe prison sentence.

[Ammi]

…terrifying for him to go through, I imagine his emotional scars will not heal so easily as his physical ones…hopefully he has a solid support circle around him …

[Peppermint]

So tragic that things like this happen bc of somebody's sexuality, hope he's okay
