We reject Mr Maugham’s assertions about us which are unfounded and bizarre. #LGBAlliance is entirely funded by individual donations; we are a group of LGB people. His assertions remind us of the wild conspiracy theories people used to invent decades ago about gay people./1of2 
Then we were all spies and linked to a Communist global threat. Now apparently we’re linked to the far right. We’re neither. We’re a bunch of ordinary LGB people standing up for our rights./2of2
To those who are urging us to sue: We believe that in making these defamatory remarks Mr Maugham is deliberately trying to provoke us into deploying our limited financial and time resources to rebut his claims.
We consider this would be a waste of our funding, which is sourced in an entirely legitimate way from individual donations. We are content to let Mr Maugham continue to make a spectacle of himself throwing around false and unfounded allegations in hyperbolic terms.
