Vile from #DavidBlunkett, viler to watch #BBC panel openly cheering it. Even defends #MiriamCates' despicable, hateful speech as "perfectly reasonable"!
I'd forgotten just how reactionary he and so many New Labour figures were, including in his case trying to keep #Section28. What on earth is he doing advising #Labour now? Surely #Starmer didn't take advice from him on what line to take on #Section35 given his history?
