Jan Moir - Homophobic bitch of the highest magnitude

Why do you not except that as an apology? She addresses every contentious issue. She does however not stand down but instead defends her position. whether you agree with her or not, it's not as bleak as you make out IMO.

Because an apology is where one stands down and admits one's failings. Defending one's position is half of an argument, which is an entirely different thing.

Her 'apology' is nothing of the sort - it's a passive-aggressive way of saying "I'm sorry you feel that way" that implies "(but you're wrong and I'm right)" .
