The Stonewall Awards have been announced with much, err well some fanfare. These events are important for fundraising and keeping organisations like Stonewall in the media. It's usually the category 'Bigot of the Year' that understandably gets the most media focus and this year's winner - Chris Grayling, is surely a winner few (anyone?) can question receiving the award.
