At last a straight answer, Farron has now come out and said that being gay is not a sin. It's amazing what a bit of negative publicity can do. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-39644939
No, I'm saying "enough said" because the author sounds like they haven't a clue about anything. Just like the LibDems.
A blog written by a LibDem polyamorous bisexual transwoman. Enough said.
It's not been a good start for Farron, he's now embroiled in controversy for inferring that it's a sin to be gay. Not what you would expect from a liberal, is it? http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2017/04/19/absolute-disgrace-tim-farron-fire-refusing-answer-asked-gay/
When we leave the EU in two years' time we will be free to spend that £350m on the NHS or anything else the government of the day decides. I really don't understand why Remoaners expect the money to be spent now, when we are still contributing billions to the EU club.
Read the side of the bus again. It stated we send £350 million a week to the EU, and suggested we fund the NHS instead.

Ultimately ministers are responsible for signing off the agreements, if they allowed civil servants to negotiate such poor deals that have cost the taxpayer billions then it reflects on them. And I really don't think the government will be able hide behind or blame civil servants for any bad deals in the upcoming negotiations, the buck will stop at No 10.
When it comes to PFI, there is no getting out of it. The taxpayer is obliged to fund the billions for several decades until the agreements expire.
The NHS wouldn't be in such a parlous state if it wasn't for the disastrous PFI financing deals, almost all of them negotiated while Labour was in government. A Telegraph article from 2015: The NHS is spending more than £3,700 every minute to pay for privately financed hospitals, The Telegraph can disclose. The bill for private finance initiative (PFI) hospital schemes will hit ...
