Daily Mail Readers Can Not Help Themselves As Tamal Ray Comes Out
One can’t help but look, but when the Daily Mail reported that Tamal Ray from Great British Bake Off came out as gay, we had to go through the DM’s comment section to see what its readers thought….
Now we’re careful to point out here that these are moderated comments and do not reflect the thoughts, opinions or anything else of the DM editorial team…
There was a lot of conspiracy talk of the BBC ticking boxes.
Bert Puttocks: “Another BBC diversity box ticked”
JackMonroeFanClub: “The BBC has to tick the boxes. No random selection of candidates here methinks.”
Hansel: Boxed ticked. Well done BBC. Another year a, another chance to open the diversity playbook.
Then there were those who were happy with the proactive actions they had taken to make sure no gayness ever entered their living rooms ever again:
allyc: “So glad I cancelled my TV licence.”
That’ll show em…
Stephen: This guy is a dream come true for the left wing, he seems to tick all of the right boxes to gain him favour with them.
smg: is everyone gay now?
However to be fair and balanced – there were a lot of positive comments – but most people commented on whether Tamal was a “heartthrob” – the answer is yes people, yes!

Pope “Thanked” Kim Davis For Her “Courage” And Told Her To “Stay Strong”
Anti-Gay Marriage Clerk, Kim Davis has private audience with the Pope in which he allegedly thanked her and told her to stay strong.
Anti-gay marriage Rowan County Clerk Kim Davis had a private 15-minute audience with the head of the Catholic Church, Pope Francis, during his recent visit to the United States at the Vatican Embassy in Washington.
The clerk has spent six days in jail for contempt of court, after refusing to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples in Kentucky. Ms. Davis who has been married 4 times has argued that her religious beliefs should make her exempt from issuing marriage licenses to gay and lesbian couples.
Lesbian, Bi and Gay couples have had the right to marriage licenses in the US since SCOTUS legalised same-sex marriage in June, earlier this year.
According to Ms. Davis’s lawyer Mat Stavers, the Pope “thanked her for her courage” and to “stay strong”.When asked about his views on government officials seeking exemption because of their religious beliefs he told reporters that
“It is a right. And if a person does not allow others to be a conscientious objector, he denies a right.”
