Gay rumours dogging every left-wing leader 'could be because of their opponents'

RUMOURS that every left-wing national leader is secretly gay may arise from the bigoted dicks arrayed against them, research has found. 

Whispers that Keir Starmer has enjoyed clandestine liaisons follow rumours that Macron is gay, that Macron’s wife is a man, that Obama is gay, that Obama’s wife is a man and very probably that Pitt the Younger was a raving homo who buggered peasants.

Analyst Norman Steele said: “No rumours that Theresa May was a lesbian. No suggestion that David Cameron was doing more than just hugging hoodies. No gossip about George W Bush blowing goats.

“But oddly, anyone left-wing – even if they’re not really, like Starmer – is immediately dogged by tattle they go with rent-boys, ignoring considerations like his being far too dull.

“Throughout the 80s there was not one rumour that Thatcher was a lesbian, despite being a testicle-stomping witch who only married her hard-drinking husband for money. Come on. She is such a femme power top they cast Gillian Anderson as her in The Crown.

“We believe these rumours come from right-wingers liking to think about freaky sex stuff all the time but knowing it’s bad, so they project it onto their hate figures.”

Reform UK voter Wayne Hayes said: “No way. I don’t want to rim Keir Starmer. Even though I often imagine how much he’d love it.”

Woman holidaying alone on unwilling journey of self-discovery

A WOMAN taking a week’s holiday abroad is weighed down by the expectation that it must be a voyage of emotional exploration and self-discovery.

Joanna Kramer, aged 40, feels herself pressured into activities focused on empowerment, spiritual awakening and embracing her independent womanhood when she would rather get drunk and shag hot Faliraki barmen.

She said: “I blame Eat Pray Love. I can’t open Instagram, which by Christ catches on quick, without a deluge of posts about women whose solo breaks helped them ‘achieve self-acceptance’ or were ‘a quest for meaning’.

“Sounds shit. I’d rather get my tanning hours in then lick salt of a waiter’s nipple before a tequila shot, but instead I’m being told to walk up a mountain at 4am so I can see sunrise from its summit. F**k off.

“Can’t I just do all the stuff you usually do on holiday, but with no-one else there? Do I have to be on a journey to being a better person? Is it really courageous to be off work and lying in the sun?

“One comment on my socials said ‘It seems like you’re running away from something.’ Yes! Britain.”

Counsellor Sophie Rodriguez said: “Unattached women can enjoy vacationing alone only if they gaze dreamily out of windows while it rains, then sigh to let viewers know they’re going to be okay after all.”
