Gay MP to Media: "Back Off"


Alan Duncanx180 (Jelony) | Advocate.com

British MP Alan Duncan, the first Conservative member of parliament to come out voluntarily, has blasted the recent media storm centered on a colleague and his alleged relationship with a 25-year-old aide.

Foreign secretary William Hague has denied an affair with special adviser Chris Myers, who resigned on Wednesday after he was subjected to "untrue and malicious allegations," Pink News reports.

Duncan decried the speculation in an interview with the BBC. "Leave them alone now," Duncan said. "Back off and let's get on with watching a very, very competent foreign secretary and a serious figure in our politics get on with his job." 

Last month Crispin Blunt, a Conservative MP in the Department of Justice, separated from his wife and decided "to come to terms with his homosexuality."
