Tim Farron has said he regrets stating he did not believe gay sex was a sin during last year's general election.
The ex-Lib Dem leader told Christian Radio he had been "foolish and wrong" and had spoken partly to try and get the issue of his faith "off the table".

Which he follows up with:
Part of the difficulty he said he found himself wrestling with was the different understanding of what sin constitutes for Christians and non-Christians.
"In the end, if you are a Christian you have a very clear idea of what sin is. It is us falling short of the glory of God, and that is something all of us equally share.
"So to be asked that question is essentially to persecute one group of human beings because sin is something, Jesus excepted, we are all guilty of. But if you are not a Christian, what does sin mean? It is to be accused of something, to be condemnatory, and so we are talking different languages.

What a load of babble. Get it off the table, my arse. Lies to win votes. And then he tries to excuse his lies by saying, "It's too complicated for you, you wouldn't understand."
Farron and Blair, both strongly religious, both liars, both look like weasley little shits.
May's quite religious as well. Why the hell is British politics being invaded by these nuts?
