An update on the gay adoption debate

It seems that a solution has not been found between the Catholic adoption agencies, and Westminster.

Legislation has now been passed making it illegal for the agencies to discriminate against gay couples. (Independent).

I think that if the Catholic agencies do now decide to close down, or reject applications from gay couples, it will be a great shame for the children waiting for a loving family. I also think that gay couples deserve to have fully equal rights (It is the 21st century after all). It is also a shame that this issue has taken so long to resolve, whilst growing numbers of children wait eagerly for a preferment home. In my opinion the legislation should now be respected by every organisation, with no exception.

Westminster has made political history today - I think they may also have gained a few voters too.
