Theres loads of gays in this country, i know about 10 in one small town alone!

Umm no: "The Office for National Statistics (ONS) says 480,000 (1%) consider themselves gay or lesbian, and 245,000 (0.5%) bisexual.

The ONS received 450,000 responses in its new Integrated Household Survey.

The survey provides the biggest pool of social data in the UK after the Census, ONS says"

I dont think a survey taken at a builders yard would be considered worthy of being a leading BBC story.
