Jan MoirThe 'Lesbian & Gay Foundation' based in Manchester has made a report to the Metropolitan Police over the Daily Mail hate filled article by Jan Moir. The vile piece appeared on the Daily Mail website on Friday.

The LGF's report criticised Jan Moir's article, "We believe it incites gay hatred and encourages those who would seek to attack gay people to be even more judgmental as well as fuel existing homophobia and intolerance of the gay community in general. We perceive that this constitutes a hate incident and as such has been reported to the Metropolitan Police."

A Metropolitan police spokesman confirmed, "We have received a complaint from a member of the public."

A spokesman for the Press Complaints Commission (PCC) said that most of the 1,000 complaints received were in relation to issues of accuracy, intrusion, and discrimination.
