Castro To Spend More Time Persecuting Gays

CUBA’S ailing leader Fidel Castro is to retire from dictating so he can spend more time playing golf and persecuting gays, his aides confirmed last night.

Castro, a long-time advocate of the state oppression of homosexuals, will devote the remainder of his life to educating the world of the dangers posed by flouncing.

He is to set up the Fidel Castro Foundation for the Persecution of Homosexuals to further the argument that  it all started going wrong for the West when they allowed the gays to get above themselves.

Tom Logan, a communist of Bow, East London, said that many admirers of Castro forgot his major contribution to criminalising gay sex acts.

He said: “His economic reforms have made Cuba into one of the top sex tourism destinations in the world, but you won’t find many benders, not unless they are behind bars.”

Castro is also planning a lucrative worldwide lecture tour on the evils of homosexuality, taking in the southern United States, Saudi Arabia and Hampshire.

He will also spend more time building model amphibious landing craft and recreating the repulsion of the US-funded Bay of Pigs invasion in miniature.
