The Times they are a changing! GCHQ celebrates IDAHOT week!

This is pretty amazing, when I think about the course of even my lifetime- British security services/ministry of Defence lighting up a satellite station in Cornwall up in the rainbow flag colours. Not too far from yours truly either! :-))

It started last year at Bude, see the press release below:

Of course every state mechanism is tyrannical. It's Hobbes 'Leviathan'- the state monopoly of violence. That being said, personally, I thought it interesting, considering the history of non-heterosexuality and military/security service that GCHQ would firstly do this, and secondly has an LGBTQ staff forum.
