Some of us with longer memories recall Portillo as a member of the Tory government in 1988 which supported the introduction of anti-gay legislation that came to be known as Clause 28. This, from someone who subsequently admitted to having had 'homosexual experiences as a young man' but only when threatened with being outed as a gay man. In 1990, Portillo was appointed Minister of State for Local Government when he argued in favour of the Poll Tax, legislation so hated by the public, it resulted in widespread riots.
His Spanish father was a devout socialist who fought fascism but was forced to flee Franco's regime for the UK in fear of his life. Despite this, Portillo consistently positioned himself on the right wing of the political spectrum.
Portillo might well be warm and courteous when meeting the public but he is the epitome of a hypocrite and an insult to his father's memory. Being 'an excellent broadcaster' doesn't absolve the bastard of the sins of his past. Not only that but his dress-sense is fucking dreadful!
Phew. Rant over.
There's a few skeletons in his closet. A former Labour MP told me something he used to do in parliament.

It might come out one day.
