William Shepherd (British politician)

William Stanley Shepherd (12 March 1910 – 11 October 2002) was a British Conservative politician.

He served with the army in France, Belgium and the Netherlands during World War II, reaching the rank of Lieutenant.

He also spoke out against reform of anti-homosexual laws, once stating "The proper way to look at homosexuality is to regard it not as something separate but as something to which any of us can succumb if the circumstances of our lives or the weakness of our outlook make us susceptible."

Incest is a much more natural act than homosexuality[1] In the 1980s, he joined the Social Democratic Party (SDP).
