Comments on: Australian human rights consultation to focus on homophobia http://www.pinknews.co.uk/news/articles/2005-11411.html/ PinkNews.co.uk Gay News (UK and world) from Pink News - all the gay news for the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgendered community in the UK and beyond- thegaynews from Pink News Wed, 25 Nov 2009 04:47:00 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.6 hourly 1 By: Lincoln http://www.pinknews.co.uk/news/articles/2005-11411.html/comment-page-1/#comment-78143 Lincoln Mon, 19 Oct 2009 17:07:00 +0000 http://www.pinknews.co.uk/news/articles/2005-11411.html#comment-78143 In Victoria, law has just been passed so that Christian run organisations, schools, churches ect can discriminate against gays and single parents under "freedom of religion". As a gay Australian, I don't spend much time here in Australia as it is becoming pathologically biblical due to its isolation and its unmonitored government system. That's one of the reasons Australia refuses to sign any UN declaration - Australia is a dictatorship parading as a democracy. What's worse is Murdoch practically runs all Australian media ensuring Australians stay in constant dumbdown mode with no idea to what really goes on.

There is no human rights act and the religious conservative right will do everything in their power to stop anything that protects or enhances the rights of gay , lesbian and transgendered people. The main political parties are very homophobic! The Labor Party is filled with Catholic right-wingers around the country. Only the Greens have a political agenda for full freedoms and rights.
