[Margaret Pilkington]

I read the article too, and I didn't get the impression that Jan Moir was being homophobic.......she was observing that despite civil partnerships, these couples still go through the same kind of trials that heterosexual couples may experience......they have the same kind of ups and downs.

I do agree with Neil, that these minor celebs court the media, and then when the media turn on them.....as they always do......the bleat about it.

And the whole of the media are to blame....they circle like vultures waiting to pounce on the corpses of deceased 'stars'....they fill their pages with assumptions and innuendo.

I made absolutely nothing of this article, it certainly didn't offend me, and while it is sad that this young man's life is ended in such a way.....he lived his life in the way that he wanted.
No thought, (or very little thought) is given to the loss of young lives in the pusuit of democracy for a country that has no links to ours(Afghanistan).......I am more offended by the lack of support and equipment for these young men, than I am over some faded pop star.
