Gay rights advocates have criticised slated changes to Victoria’s equal opportunity laws that will continue to allow religious organisations to discriminate against gays and single parents.
State Attorney-General Rob Hulls says a new Equal Opportunity Bill will be introduced into parliament next year.
Under the changes, religious groups will no longer be able to discriminate on the grounds of race, disability, age, physical features, political belief or breastfeeding.
But they can continue to discriminate on grounds including sexuality or marital status if it is in accordance with their beliefs.Someone please tell me how this makes sense, because I cannot see it.
Nothing like a bit of institutionalised discrimination on a Sunday afternoon.
