Duncan hits back at stars

Alan Duncan lashed out at the celebs who criticised his party for their connection to the Polish Law and Justice Party.

Stephen Fry and friends accused the poles of being gay-haters. Duncan, who lives with his partner James Dunseath, said:

“It’s just absurd and misleading of these people to suggest that our grouping in the European Parliament in any way endorses or encourages these views.

“These celebrities should really have known better than to make such stark accusations – and I rather resent this attempt to attach guilt to us in the way they have.

“What matters is a grouping that is good for Europe and helps British interests in Europe.”
