"Working-class northerner Sam had no problem coming out as gay to his parents. But coming out as a Tory?"
It is, quite unbelievably, not an biography based on my life.

Have you ever thought about adapting your life into a play?
A freeform noise opera, maybe?
I would love to see this.
Especially the act where he joins DiS and Theo and Jacob Jones have arias about the Labour Party.
As far as I can tell
JacobJones hates the Labour Party.
We all hate the Labour party,
but some of us hate the Conservative party more.
you mean you're not a Tory???
^ 2/10
Harsh.
I found it quite funny.
this just illustrates how different we are, then
"ruddy hell"
the most Toff/Tory non-sweary phrase ever.
i prefer the word 'heck'
ha ha
i haven't heard that one in "yonks"
"Ruddy Hell, it's Soft Cell!"
I did once work with a real toff
who would say 'fiddlesticks' in a really aggressive manner when he was angry. I think that's 'worse'.
I can't imagine this is anything but horrible
I can see why you'd want to be the first to post this
hur hur hur
"Mum, dad. I need to tell you something.
I believe in a market based economy with low rates of taxatin to allow people to invest their money as they choose in services they want and not be held back by the unfortunate man on the street!"
Inspired
Why would coming out as Tory
be any problem at all? How could they develop a play about this?
If I came out as a Tory
I would be shunned by my friends and disowned by my family. And locked up in a loony bin.
And quite right too.
Wow you're family and friends
sound like really horrible, intolerant people.
Are they tories then?

No.
They're normal.
Cutting
ha
"Tory Boyz is a bold and acerbic political comedy drama that shines a light on the hidden faces behind the Conservative party. Peopled by young, exciting men and women who don’t exactly fit with the stereotype, the play confronts questions over the party seen traditionally by the liberal left as intolerant and prejudice, yet whose leader’s voting record on equal rights surpasses the Labour Prime Ministers, and who’s intake of homosexual MP’s and Councillors is unrivaled."
Sounds like it's going to be evenhanded then
hur hur
that tagline
is so absurd, it sounds like something out of a sketch show. Brilliant.
Where were you when Boris was proposing raising the drinking age to 21 in London?
What do you mean, where was I?
I was in London.
