Nick Clegg: ‘I love that you can be gay and proud in Britain’

Nick Clegg has said that he loves that people can be “gay and proud” in Britain.

Speaking at the Liberal Democrats Spring Conference, the Daily Mail reports, the Deputy Prime Minister said that the situation in Russia highlights how strong Britain’s LGBT record is.

He said: “I look at what’s happening in places like Russia, where the government is effectively criminalising homosexuality, and I love that Britain is a place where you can be gay and proud – and now you can get married too.”

Clegg did not attend the Sochi Winter Olympics because of the country’s anti-gay laws.

Speaking about the anti-gay legislation, he told LBC 97.3 at the time: “It’s just the most regressive law imaginable, it has a very chilling effect, intimidating effect, on many people in the lesbian, bisexual, gay community in Russia and elsewhere.”

Same-sex marriages will be legal in England and Wales from March 29.
