'Queers' Tweet minister faces sacking call

LABOUR MPs called on David Cameron yesterday to sack a minister who shared a Tweet labelling their rival party “full of queers.”

Business Minister Matthew Hancock issued a panicked apology after reposting the offensive message, insisting it was “a total accident.”

The message Mr Hancock shared said: “The party run by young Ed, is quietly going quite dead, bereft of ideas, quite full of queers, no wonder the faithful have fled.”
