The idea that there are people in this country that have been elected to positions of power over me that genuinely think I should go to hell (literally and figuratively) for who I am makes me feel sick. What makes me feel not just sick but terrified, is that given the chance these people would enshrine their beliefs in legislation which would actively reshape my life without my consent. And what better chance do you get than to be a Member of Parliament?
People (and there are many) who choose to dismiss and laugh at John Banks being re-elected are well within their rights to do so, I wish I could myself.

John Banks fills me with so much angreys.
…I can’t legitimately add any more than that without breaking my swear-glands.
We must ration our swears in these tough, second-term-NACT times. They will be sorely needed before the end.
