BORIS CHRISTMAS CAROLS WITH HOMO-HATE EVANGELISTA

News by HOMOVISION on December 9, 2009 at 10:40 am

Peter Tatchell has today criticised London Mayor Boris Johnson for accepting a carol-service invite from homo-hate clergyman Agu Irukwu. According to Tatchell, Irukwu is a long-time opponent of gay equality and opposes civil partnerships and the fostering of children by same-sex couples.

Tatchell adds: “On 13 July 2006 he signed a letter to Daily Telegraph suggesting that gay people are not equal to heterosexual people and opposing laws to protect lesbians and gay men against discrimination. He denounced such laws as ‘Christianophobia’”.

“Boris should investigate the people who invite him before accepting their invitations. He should not attend this church, for the same reason that he should not attend a church where the pastor preaches against black or Jewish people or against equal rights for women or Muslims. The Mayor of a multicultural city should not collude with a preacher who rejects diversity and opposes the human rights of lesbian and gay people.”

“Pastor Agu Irukwu is a divisive character. He divides gay and straight Londoners,” added Mr Tatchell.
