Public Advocate Responds to Murder Threat by British Tory MP

Contact: Eugene Delgaudio, Public Advocate of the U.S., 703-845-1808, eugenedelgaudio@erols.com

MEDIA ADVISORY, April 28 /Christian Newswire/ -- A senior Tory MP joked about murdering Miss California recently on a popular TV show in Great Britain. Public Advocate, a non-profit group, responded to the murder threat by demanding the British Ambassador be sent home immediately.

Shadow leader of the House of Commons Alan Duncan was appearing on the BBC comedy show "Have I Got News For You" when he declared that he might "murder" Miss California himself.

He, Duncan, was commenting on the beauty contestant for standing firm on her pro-traditional marriage position under attack by another openly homosexual attacker.

Public Advocate has posted a transcript of the exchange, a video from the TV showlinks to news videos of the incident and other news reports for the public and  its supporters at http://www.publicadvocateusa.org/

Public Advocate president Eugene Delgaudio issued this statement today from Washington, D.C.

"Public Advocate is concerned when government officials from abroad advocate murdering our citizens. The British Ambassador in Washington should be sent home immediately and the President of the United States should sever diplomatic relations for a period of time.

"Alan Duncan is not from the United States, he probably doesn't understand our way of life. He is not an American, not a party to American politics, and yet he is trying to limit one American's right to free speech. Attempting to silence one American is an attempt to silence all Americans.

"How is Duncan's murder threat any different from King George's threat to put down the Boston Tea Parties and the American revolution?

"Long live free speech and long live the reign of Miss California."
