MICHELLE VISAGE: Katie Hopkins Cannot Be A Gay Icon
The finely manicured nails are out as Michelle Visage slams Katie Hopkins for siding with Dolce And Gabbana.
Calling the wannabe gay icon out on siding with the controversial designers Dolce and Gabbana, Michelle Visage has blasted Katie Hopkins saying that there is no way the former Apprentice star could be a gay icon. Earlier in the year Dolce And Gabbana made derisory comments about same-sex parenting and children born via IVF treatments.
Katie Hopkins claimed that the gay community was being “intolerant” over the D&G boycott.
However Drag Race judge Michelle Visage has something to say about her former friend’s thoughts on everything from Dolce And Gabbana to the holocaust.
Speaking to THEGAYUK she said,
“You can’t say you want to be a gay icon on one hand and then support Dolce and Gabbana on the other.
“It just doesn’t make sense. And the Holocaust comments, the immigration comments, it’s just too much for me.”
This past week Katie Hopkins faced an awkward situation after being booked to speak at an event at Brunel University. When she started to speak most of the students stood up and turned their backs on her. When she had finished and they were invited to take their seats – the majority walked out.
Katie Hopkins is on record in saying that it is her aim to become a gay icon. -

Nigel Farage HIV Patients “Struggling To Get The Drugs” Because Of Immigrants
According to the UKIP Leader many HIV patients in the UK have written to him to say that they are struggling to get HIV drugs because of immigration.
Speaking on LBC, UKIP Leader Nigel Farage was answering a question from Nick Ferrari about whether he and UKIP were politically toxic. Answering, Farage brought up the controversy he caused during a leaders’ debate earlier in the year, when he made “outrageous” claims about “health tourism” with immigrants with HIV – testing positive in the UK, obtaining medication on the NHS costing £25,000 per patient per year.
During the debate he said, He didn’t believe in health tourism and “We need to put the National Health Service there for British people and families.”
However Farage said, that since the debate and making those claims he has received letters from “lots of HIV sufferers in this country” who have said that their “local clinics are unrecognisable (with) the number of people that are here”.
He went on to say that people were “struggling to get the drugs” they needed.
However THEGAYUK reached out to the NHS media team to ask if they were aware of any problems of drug shortages in clinics.
A spokesman for NHS England said,
“We have not been made aware of any capacity or drug shortage issues in HIV clinics.”

Rules Surrounding Gay Men Blood DonationsTo Be Reviewed
Great news from the gay men’s blood donation campaign.
Public Health Minister Jane Ellison MP has just announced that the advisory body will now review who can safely donate in 2016.
As it stands gay and bisexual men who have had penetrative sex in the last 12 months are unable to legally donate regardless of whether they are in a monogamous relationship, they use protection whilst having sex or they test negative for HIV.In 2011 the outright ban for gay and bisexual men to donate blood was removed and reduced to a one year ban. Meaning only gay or bisexual men who haven’t had sex within a year can donate blood. A practice many believe is discriminatory. In Northern Ireland the life time ban is still in force.Ethan Spibey from the Freedom To Donate campaign said,“The FreedomToDonate team have worked tireless with our brilliant supporters to raise the case for a review into who can safely donate blood. I’m extremely happy that this morning the Public Health Minister Jane Ellison MP in answer to a question on the FreedomToDonate campaign confirmed that this review will take place in 2016. Those that can safely donate blood should be able to donate and securing this review is a step towards that. It’s time for the FreedomToDonate.”
Shaun Griffin, Executive Director External Affairs, Terrene Higgins Trust said:
“We welcome today’s news. The 2011 review that the one year ban was based on is now out of date, and the rules need reviewing to fit the facts today.
“The review announced today, as well as considering the latest available data, should also address the contradictions attached to the lifetime ban on former sex workers and past intravenous drug users, which were not addressed in 2011.
“The safety of the blood supply must come first – but the one year ban, and the information the decision was based on is out of touch with the reality of conditions like hep C and HIV in 2015.”
