  • 1 in 5 Britons wouldn’t come to your gay wedding

    A new poll for BBC Radio 5 Live has revealed that 20% of British people are uncomfortable with same-sex marriage and would decline an invitation.

    As the clock strikes midnight tonight gay marriage will become legal in the UK, with several couples around the country getting ready to tie the knot at 12.01AM – however a new poll has shown that 20% of Britons would refuse to accept an invitation.

    The poll by ComRes for BBC Radio 5 Live found that 68% of people agreed that same-sex marriage should be permitted – with 26% opposing. 1007 people were surveyed.

    UNCOMFORTABLE FOR MEN
    It seems as though men are more uncomfortable with the idea, with 29% saying they would not attend compared to 16% of women.

    18 to 34 year-olds are the most likely to support gay marriage with 80% backing the law. Only 44% of over 65s agree with the new law.

    FLYING THE FLAG FOR YOU
    Nick Clegg announced this week that Whitehall would be flying the rainbow flag above its offices this week – from Midnight, to celebrate the enactment of the new law, which was originally voted on last year.

  • Whitehall To Fly Gay Flag For Gay Marriage Week

    Gay gay gay gay… It’s all going down this week, or rather up as Nick Clegg has announced that Whitehall is to fly the rainbow flag to celebrate the legalisation of same-sex marriage.

    From the 29th March, gay people across the UK will legally be able to marry and to celebrate the historic move Nick Clegg has announced that a rainbow flag will be flown at Whitehall.

    Numerous couples around the UK will be taking their vowels on Saturday morning at 12.01AM.

    Speaking to Pinknews, Nick Clegg said:

    ‘As all the same-sex couples make their vows this weekend, they will be making history.

    ‘Finally, after years of campaigning, any couple who wants to get married can get married. Together we’ve made our country a place where we celebrate love equally, gay or straight – and for that reason we should all be raising a glass.

    ‘Raising the rainbow flag on Whitehall is a small symbol to celebrate a massive achievement. I want to wish everyone getting married this weekend the very best of luck, on what is a truly momentous occasion.’

  • London’s Manbar risks closure by Westminster City Council

    Manbar, the iconic independent gay bar on Charing Cross Road will be forced to close if it loses a costly legal battle with Westminster City Council early in April.

    The bar, which is on the site of 79CXR, the legendary dance bar, which ran for eighteen years before being sold to gay entrepreneur Chris Amos, opened as Manbar in 2012.

    Since opening, Manbar has surged in popularity serving over 3000 customers a week and provided a unique and truly authentic gay space in central London.

    Repeated complaints from one resident two floors above the bar led to a licensing review last summer in which Westminster Council banned regulated entertainment (the playing of music) until such time as improvements were made. Manbar has appealed and has continued to trade pending the appeal hearing which comes before Westminster Magistrates on Monday 7th April 2014.

    In the mean time, expert advice has led to extensive works being carried out to ensure that noise nuisance, however slight, does not take place. Council officials have been involved in measuring, testing and have written to Manbar stating, ‘we are satisfied with the Sound Limiter setting, the sound limiter model and the way in which the system is now set up.’ But to no avail. Senior officers at Westminster refuse to see sense and compromise, insisting on pursuing the appeal.

    So successful has Manbar been in solving the problem that council officials could not detect any noise in the complainant’s flat. They even turned off the resident’s fridge and laptop in an attempt to hear noise.

    Whilst Manbar have been advised that they should win, if they lose they face a legal bill of up to £60,000.

    Is this fair? Should one resident’s complaint – that he can hear noise if he turns his fridge off – lead Westminster, with its draconian powers and seemingly unlimited financial muscle, to pursue and persecute tiny Manbar?

    Chris Amos is seeking support both from the gay scene and the general public to help fight off Westminster City Council.

    Today the ‘SAVE MANBAR’ campaign is being launch. Full details at www.manbarsoho.com

    Members of the public can show their support on Twitter and Facebook.

  • Fred Phelps, founder of Anti-Gay Westboro Baptist Church dies

    The founder of Westboro Baptist Church (WBC) is dead according to reports.

    According to reports Fred Phelps, 84, who co-founded the WBC has died. According to a spokesperson for the church, he died on Wednesday night just before Midnight.

    He lived in Kansas.

    At the beginning of the week, his son Nate Phelps wrote on Facebook:

    ‘I’m not sure how I feel about this,

    ‘Terribly ironic that his devotion to his god ends this way. Destroyed by the monster he made.

    ‘I feel sad for all the hurt he’s caused so many. I feel sad for those who will lose the grandfather and father they loved.

    ‘And I’m bitterly angry that my family is blocking the family members… from seeing him, and saying their good-byes.’

    The group, which has been banned from entering the UK, are known for their outrageous claims and their website: godhatesfags.com. The group have devoted their time to over 52,000 pickets in over 900 cities.

    DISGRACED AWARD WINNING LAWYER
    Phelps was an award-winning civil rights lawyer before co-founding WBC in 1955. He was disbarred from the Kansas Supreme Court in 1979 and lost his license in 1989.

    Last year WBC blamed sex-same marriage for the murder of soldier Lee Rigby.

    MATTHEW SHEPARD
    One of the most notorious pickets for WBC was for Matthew Shepard’s funeral. Matthew Shepard was killed in an attack in Wyoming in 1998. Matthew’s death spurred the making of the award-winning film The Laramie Project.

  • Birmingham Drama School ‘Comes Out’ To Challenge Homophobia

    Birmingham School of Acting (BSA), part of Birmingham City University, is addressing gay preconceptions in a new theatre production where characters are scrutinised for being ‘straight’, in a society where everyone else is gay.

    Devised and performed by Outspoken, a company of graduates and students from BSA’s Applied Performance course, ‘Heterophobia’ tells the story of Ryan, a 15 year-old heterosexual male who is trying to ‘come out’.

    Tom Craig, who plays the role of Ryan and graduated from BSA in 2013, said “’Heterophobia’ is a really powerful piece as it makes you realise just how unfair sexuality prejudices are and the troubles that young people can feel are placed on them when expressing their sexuality.”

    The theatrical performance, developed in collaboration with Birmingham Hippodrome, sees Ryan develop feelings for classmate Alice and is later exposed to cyber bullying when peers learn that Ryan is heterosexual and attracted to someone of the opposite sex.

    The production follows on from the recent outrage and anti-gay climate at the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi and a report released earlier this year by Youth Chances warning that a generation of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people face a mental health crisis, with the neglect of LGBT issues by schools contributing to an environment of hostility of fear.

    Hannah Phillips, Course Director of Applied Performance at BSA and Director of ‘Heterophobia’, said: ‘The findings from the Youth Chances survey were very concerning, revealing that more than half of young gay people have suffered mental health issues and 40% have considered suicide. The School Report by the lesbian, gay and bisexual charity Stonewall, revealed that homophobic bullying is still widespread in schools, with three in five young people who experience homophobic bullying saying that teachers who witness the bullying never intervene. The development of social media means that this bullying then continues online out of school hours.

    ‘’Heterophobia’ is an urban musical which has been made to engage young people with these complex and sensitive issues and challenge normative stereotypes through spoken word, MC, dance and live video projection. ‘Heterophobia’ explores the ‘coming out’ of a heterosexual young male in a gay world, switching the roles of the oppressed and the oppressor!

    ‘Getting audience members to view this situation from another angle may help them to understand the impact that this type of bullying can have on young people.’

    ‘Heterophobia’ incorporates interactive digital technology and a fusion of art forms – dance, drama, original songs, film and animation, performance poetry and spoken word, as well as providing a new model of audience participation by welcoming spectators to explore and engage with the stage and set before each performance begins.

    Also featuring in ‘Heterophobia’ are two members of Antics Dance Crew, who appeared in Sky 1’s ‘Got to Dance’ and radio and television presenter Joanne Malin, who has recorded a mock news broadcast to be included in the production.

    Performances take place at Birmingham Hippodrome on Thursday 3 and Friday 4 April, with tickets priced at £5. For more information and to book tickets, click here.

    Approx. running 70 minutes running time.

    Schools performances (aimed at Key Stages 3, 4 & 5): Thursday 3 April at 1.30pm and Friday 4 April at 10.30am.

    Public performances: Thursday 3 and Friday 4 April at 7.15pm

  • Rupert Murdoch Knocks ‘Gay Orgs’ After Guinness Pulls Out Of NY Parade

    Rupert Murdoch, has taken a swing at gay organisations via Twitter, after Guinness pulled out of New York’s St. Patrick’s Day parade.

    Taking to Twitter yesterday the News Corp and 21st Century Fox CEO Rupert Murdoch seemingly criticised both gay organisations and Guinness, after the latter pulled out of the St. Patrick’s Day Parade in New York yesterday.

    The 83-year-old tweeted:

    ‘Where will this end? Guinness pulls out of religious parade bullied by gay orgs who try to take it over. Hope all Irish boycott the stuff’

    Whether he was calling the Irish to boycott Guinness or gay organisations – was left to the imagination of Twitter users.

    The Tweet came after Guinness revealed that it would no longer be one of the parade’s sponsors, after it emerged that gay groups and organisations are banned from marching in the yearly parade.

    In a statement to the press Guinness said:

    ‘Guinness has a strong history of supporting diversity and being an advocate for equality for all,’ the company said in a statement on the website of GLAAD, an LGBTI media watch organization.

    ‘We were hopeful that the policy of exclusion would be reversed for this year’s parade,’ the statement continued. ‘As this has not come to pass, Guinness has withdrawn its participation. We will continue to work with community leaders to ensure that future parades have an inclusionary policy.’

    Rupert Murdoch has, in the past, been critcised for being homophobic, when questionsed on gay marriage in 2006 the media mogul said:

    ‘I believe it is wrong.

    ‘I’m considered homophobic and crazy about these things and old fashioned.

    ‘But I think that the family – father, mother children – is fundamental to our civilization.’
