Daniel Radcliffe has been featured in the newest issue of Attitude magazine, in which he talks about sexuality and politics, amongst other things. The cover and a small preview have been released by the
Sun, which can be seen
below:
On his thoughts about homophobia in the world:
Quote:
"I just loathe homophobia. It's just disgusting and animal and stupid and it's just thick people who can't get their heads around it and are just scared.
"I grew up around gay people entirely. I was the only child in my class who had any experience of homosexuality or anything like that."
Dan admits that he is very adamantly a liberal democrat, and lambastes the opposing parties:
Quote:
"I rather like Nick Clegg. At the next election I will almost certainly vote Lib Dem.
"If all the people who liked them voted for them you could change politics overnight and we could have a proper three party system."
Asked about Gordon Brown he said: "Paul Merton said, and I agree with him, 'it's a tragedy that this man has waited all his life to do this job - and now he finds out he can't do it.'
"I don't like the New Labour thing. I never experienced the optimism of New Labour, I was too young but I hear everyone was up and it was fantastic. I've only seen the bad years of it."
Radcliffe's opinion on David Cameron is no more positive.
He raged: "No! No, no, no, no, no! David Cameron is barely distinguishable from Tony Blair."
He added: "I think the reason why people don't vote is because the politicians are all so central now, it doesn't seem to matter who you vote for."
He also blasted the BNP who won two seats in the recent Euro elections, saying: "I hate any type of prejudice."
