Who does his views harm?

Well gay people to start with? I would have thought that was obvious. Well it is for those content to see him for what he is and not embarrassingly defend his every action.

How has he harmed gay people?

Do you actually realise how hysterical this sounds?

It's not hysterical. If everyone allowed or accepted this sort of ignorance there would be no equality.

Allowed? Are you saying he shouldn't be allowed his view?

Gay people, deaf people, women in general for his wanton victim blaming.

Arguably, Katie Hopkins was much more offensive to a broader cross section of society and yet she was celebrated by Emma and the producers.

Two wrongs clearly don't make a right, but there is a distinct lack of consistency.

I think Winston is a prize ass, and I would never defend his views, but if KH could get away with saying what she did, how on earth is the same privilege not provided to Winston.

I've blocked out a lot of CBB15 from my memory but I'm pretty sure Emma laid into KH a bit during her eviction interview? Correct me if I'm wrong.
