Julia Gasper
Julia Gasper is an independent academic specializing in eighteenth-century French literature, and a right-wing political activist currently affiliated with the English Democrats. She was formerly a member of the United Kingdom Independence Party (UKIP) prior to her expulsion in 2012. A vociferous critic of LGBT rights, she has generated strong controversy in the British media for her comments regarding LGBT people, which have widely been deemed homophobic and transphobic.
In 1987 Gasper obtained a D.Phil in English Literature from the University of Oxford after studying at Somerville College. Her thesis examined the Protestant plays of Elizabethan English playwright Thomas Dekker.〔(【引用サイトリンク】website=Bodleian Library catalogue )〕 She has since published a number of books on eighteenth-century French literature, including ''Theodore von Neuhoff, King of Corsica'' (2012), and ''The Marquis d'Argens'' (2013).
In 2012 Gasper was selected as UKIP's Parliamentary candidate for Oxford East. She was scrutinised for her anti-LGBT blog posts by LGBT-themed news service Pink News, whose readers she then asserted were mentally ill. When ''The Sunday Mirror'' exposed further anti-LGBT comments that she had made on a UKIP members forum, she was denounced by party leader Nigel Farage and stepped down from her position. Changing her allegiance to the English Democrats, she unsuccessfully stood for them in the European Parliament elections, 2014 and for Oxford City Council in a local by-election. She meanwhile continued to attract strong criticism for her public condemnation of LGBT rights issues.
