I love bob to bits I think he’s one of the sanest ones on here, but that statement is a load of dangly drops. Both the Frogs and the Dutch have landed parties on mainland Briton and caused loss of life and destruction since 1066. The only difference is we beat the phoo out of the out of wedlock’s and sent them packing. It’s the same in all wars. One wins, one loses and every one of them is a close run thing that depends on the people in the background many of whom were gay, proud and banging each other, it’s the same to day as back then the difference is they keep their gobs shut and get on with it. Turing was far from being the only gay in the war, why should it different for him.
