As we have equality legislation, I wonder if anybody would like to define the word?

Perhaps in context of, chosen totally at random, colour of hair, race, inside leg measurement or gender of marriage partner?

I suppose, as much as the political facts Don relates, helps here, I am a lone voice in seeing that with equality embedded within Parliamentary primary legislation, European Human Rights legislation and most of all, common decency, I have problems in seeing what all the fuss is about? This is secondary legislation. If you leave a secondary bill in The Commons library for a fortnight and nobody lodges a question, it becomes law anyway.

So.. Who would seek to touch it? Moreover, who isn't in control of his own party when he has to offer his members a free vote to retain his own leadership? I wonder if there are any previous examples of free votes over secondary legislation? Ah yes.. Section 28. Cameron apologised for Th*tcher's homophobia last year.

Why I wonder does gay equality stir so much hatred? I am not gay, yet even deep down, I can't see why I have to look at gay people in the same way Heidi and Gunther were encouraged to look down on non aryans? They say that the most anti semitic of the 3rd reich gang were so due to a family tree that they might not wish to be known in public.

A bit like over in The USA, where Hoover had transvestites arrested, presumably for looking far more fetching in a skirt than he did....
