Blame Colonialism

Some people just aren't happy being successful movie stars, athletes or such. They feel they need to weigh into some 'issue of the day' and signal thier vitue. What they usually end up signalling, is their rank stupidity

Homophobia in the Commonwealth is a legacy of British Empire, says Tom Daley

I think he's a swimmer or something. He certainly isn't a philosopher

Olympic diving champion claims in BBC documentary that colonialism was behind many countries still having anti-LGBT laws 

So let's say that was once true. Britain had anti-gay laws at one point, so when they colonised other countries, those laws were also adopted in those countries

Britain no longer has any colonies and no longer has any anti-gay laws. Why have some ex-colonies decided to keep those laws, even now they can decide to remove them if they wish?

And why is this muppet blaming Britain for that? Because anything a black person does that might seem to be wrong, is always the fault of whitey, even if it takes a huge twist of  facts and logic to get there

Stick to jumping in swimming pools mate...
