Homophobic ideas still linger on in the UK

    Urgh this women again
    Few meetings in Westminster start with a reading from scripture on “desires and love” and an announcement that the participants won't be filmed or identified without their permission, but the Setting Love in Order conference wasn't purely a political meeting.

    It was the first of two events run by two Christian campaign groups to protest against a private members bill aiming to ban the controversial practise of “gay conversion” or “gay cure” therapy.

    The conference held today in central London will next move on to Northern Ireland, but both events are set under the tagline: “ Protecting the freedoms to believe, to exist and to change when homosexual feelings are unwanted.”

    Among those involved is Andrea Minichiello Williams from Christian Concern, who made headlines last month when The Independent reported her suggestion that Olympic diver Tom Daley is in a relationship with a man because of the loss of a paternal figure when his father died.

    Why can't she take a hike

    Yup, I am gay and there is nothing wrong with my Dad, or my partner's Dad etc. Its complete BS. What scares me is this women claims to be a barrister? How can someone with such qualifications be so monumentally idiotic and hateful?
