Re: UK election
Apparently there's some question of what exactly they are?
But I guess I am meant to infer that he is at least somewhat anti-gay? I obviously am not a fan of anti-gay politicians. But there was some vagueness in that article, so I couldn't quite tell what his views were. But if a gay member of the party is quitting a position over it (and presumably he has spoken to Farron personally) I guess there's probably something wrong there.
But the view of "we need to run as a third party so we can act as a spoiler enabling the Conservatives to win more seats" is probably more damaging given that Farron was never, ever going to be Prime Minister (and unlikely to be in government, and even if he were, unlikely to influence policy on LGBT rights).
