“LGBT and” lol oh dear. I suspect they were correcting the + there…
Not sure why you comment on Eddie Mair – is he a campaigner?
We get the “LGBT and Liberal Democrats” thing a lot. It’s vexing :-/
I think part of the problem is that Facebook wouldn’t let us be LGBT+ Lib Dems, so we had to be LGBT + Lib Dems instead…
Still, well done Sarah!
