It's no secret the Tory-Lites are portraying themselves as the 'all embracing rainbow party', as I've pointed out many times on here, along with others.

The question is, despite what they'd have people believe, and evidenced by this latest story of blatant discrimination, have they really changed, or is it a thin veneer of pretence, in order to be more appealing to all sections of the electorate?
