The homophobic and racist Phillip Blond is Director of ResPublica, a Tory think tank funded by such as Michael Ashcroft and Rupert Murdoch. It is claimed that the think tank is independent, in the same way that Iain Duncan Smith claims the the Centre for Social Justice is independent of Tory influence.
Last night, the homosexual Tory mouthpiece for David Cameron, Iain Dale, on Newsnight, stated it did not matter that Blond is homophobic. Launching ResPublica yesterday, "A spokesman for Mr Cameron said: 'The fact that David Cameron is appearing at this event doesn't mean that he endorses all of Phillip Blond's views.'
So, the homophobic and racist views are not endorsed by the Tories. They remain the sole property of the Red Tory and not part of the Nasty party. In the same way, one presumes, that Polish Law and Justice Party MP Michal Kaminski's racist and homophobic views have been ignored by Iain Dale and David Cameron when it suits them.
This quackery from the dumb Blond reminds me of Rasputin. The red mist is descending. Perhaps, balance could be restored by Blue Labour?

Where did you get the funding information?
If Phillip Blond is "homophobic and racist" so are most of the general public.
Phillip Blond holds moderately conservative social opinions that would have been well-nigh universal even thirty years ago, such as the belief (borne out by a mountain of research) that children do better in stable, monogamous, heterosexual "nuclear" families of the kind so loathed by our pseudo-liberal elites and their mass media clerisy.
Of course, anyone who does not vocally endorse the most extreme demands of the gay-rights lobby is likely to attract the anathema "homophobic", just as anyone who doubts the sustainability (let alone wisdom) of uncontrolled open-door mass immigration, and doubts the intellectual coherence of multiculturalism, is likely to be dubbed a "racist".
ResPublic is NOT funded by Murdoch. Indeed the latter's organs are those most critical of Blond. Anonymous is of course right as any genuine radical will recognise.
Well those are certainly familiar tropes coming form conservatives wanting to paint themselves as cool and trendy, but I gotta cry bullshit to it. There is no mountain of research that says children "do better" in a nuclear family - there a variety of factors in raising a child and on the whole gay couples who adopt have been found to do better per capita than straight couples (owning to a variety of factors). I get it though, it works better in debate to throw around some pseudo-science when you really just want to quote JPII.
I would be very curious to see the list of donors though.
