A UKIP councillor has labelled bisexuals and Trans people ‘part time homosexuals’.
Samuel Fletcher, a UKIP town councillor for Bracken Bank and Ingrow Ward in Keighley,
had previously admitted to being “baffled” by lesbians in January.
According to TheBackBencher.co.UK,
the UK Independence Party politician took to Facebook again yesterday,
arguing that bisexuals are “part-time homosexuals”, and that “a
Trans-sexual is someone who changes their own sexuality in order to
appeal to either of the opposite sex, so that also makes someone a kind
of part time homosexual”.
Fletcher also admitted to being “a bit confused about Trans-sexuals”,
reporting that he had “just realised a man could change himself into a
woman in order to attract a man”, which he says “wouldn’t be homosexual
at all”.
In his previous comments he had compared gay people to mushrooms,
saying: “I used to really hate the texture when I was a child. Now I can
tolerate them.”
In
an question and answer session with PinkNews.co.UK on Tuesday, Nigel
Farage admitted “there will always be those whose comments will cause
embarrassment” within the party.
