There seems to be a full on hate campaign against Peter Tatchell, one of the most honorable Green Party activists I know, disagreement is one thing, a full scale assault on the truth is another. Andy Newman’s post (12.) repeats the false allegations against myself and OutRage! by a group of African LGBTI activists. Most African LGBTI activists refused to sign the letter denouncing...

This is a comment from Peter...

When I first knew Peter in the late 1980s he used to be threatend with physical violence by fascist groups so I am particularly shocked that he has been accused of being someone who “participated with several racist and fascist groups.” Its a lie plain and simple. New censorship fabrications by supporters of Out Of Place Peter [...]

A good, beneficial multicultural society is one in which everyone has the freedom to pursue their own different ethics and lifestyles, while in the public sphere all citizens are treated as equals and are bound together by a shared commitment to universal human rights, regardless of the differences in their personal morality and private lives. I do not, for example, insist that people of faith approve...

New censorship fabrications by supporters of Out Of Place Peter Tatchell writes: Despite having secured an apology from Raw Nerve Books over a false and libellous chapter in the book Out Of Place, the lies and smears against me are continuing and escalating.

Yes, I know, we’ve had a lot of discussion about Peter Tatchell this week. But I think what he had to say in a speech - presented at the Gallery of Modern Art, Glasgow, 28 October 2009 - defending universal human rights against charges of “cultural imperialism” by cultural relativists, is very important. And, in a perverse [...]
