Nope to the Pope


It looks like this Summer's visit by the Pope to Britain is causing a few feathers to be ruffled, first there are his negative comments about the recently debated UK equality laws, obviously the leader of the Catholic church insists that his organisation remain able to discriminate against people on the basis of biological characteristics that they cannot change, that's nice. Then we have the fact that the visit will cost the tax payer some £20M, that's good news for poor old cash strapped Britain, I mean who needs new hospital wings when you can have a bigoted old man in a frock waving his ring at you. There is even a petition on the number10 website in order that people can register their objection to these things (among others), so, if you're that way inclined, drop by and sign up!
