Sex Survey: Gayers in the Westminster Village

Another result from the sex survey, which more than 2,300 of you have taken part in. I'm beginning to think one or two people may have been having a 'reet laff' and filled in the BNP survey erroneously. How on earth, otherwise, could 21.9% of BNP supporters be gay? Yes, I know there was a lot of it about in Nazi Germany, and they do so love their uniforms, but even so, 21.9%? I don't think so. Anyway, here were the other parties rankings.

LibDem 16.4%
Floating Voters 13.5%
Conservatives 11.6%
Labour 11.4%
SNP/Plaid 9.8%
Greens 4.8%
UKIP 1.6%

Don't think I'll be bothering to go to a UKIP conference anytime soon then. While the Greens have a very low gay quota, they seem to be quite happy to swing both ways. Here are the figures for the number of people who said they were bisexual...

Greens 14.3%
Floating Voters 10.5%
LibDem 8.9%
Labour 7.6%
Conservative 5.7%
SNP/Plaid 3.9%
BNP 3.1%
UKIP 1.7%

All this does seem to prove that political parties do attract more gay people, proportionately, than other areas of society. This is especially true among activists, I think. One or two people in previous threads have had a go at explaining this phenomenon, but I don' think any of them have done so very successfully.

I Will Avoid 'Genital Shaking' in Future

I really would like to apologise to the people of Israel, the Lebanon and Jordan for any inconvenience caused by the six earthquakes which have struck the region over the last few weeks. According to today's Telegraph (so it must be true) it is all the fault of me and my ilk...

Shlomo Benizri, of the ultra-Orthodox Jewish Shas party, suggested that the tremors could be stopped through the simple expedient of repealing various liberalising laws on homosexuality that have been passed by the Israeli parliament, or Knesset, in recent years... Last Sunday, to the outrage of the religious Right, the country's attorney general, Meni Mazuz, ruled that same-sex couples should be allowed to adopt children. In what Mr Benizri clearly believes is no coincidence, the first of last week's quakes hit the country just two days later."Why do earthquakes happen? One of the reasons is the things to which the Knesset gives legitimacy, to sodomy," Benizri said during a parliamentary debate on earthquake preparedness. Stopping "passing legislation on how to encourage homosexual activity in the state of Israel, which anyway brings about earthquakes," would represent a cost-effective method of preventing future earthquakes, he continued.

"We are looking for earthly solutions, how to prevent them," he said. "I have another way to prevent earthquakes. The Gemara says that one of the reasons earthquakes happen - which the Knesset (parliament) legitimises - is homosexuality. "God says you shake your genitals where you are not supposed to and I will shake my world in order to wake you up," he added.

It is sometime since I realised I had made the earth move. I promise in future to resist the temptation of any genital shaking in the hope that further earthquakes may be avoided. I thank you.
