Isi artikel
It is a measure of how much public discourse has changed that the argument this week on gay rights was about how rude politicians can be not to homosexuals, but to their opponents. Nick Clegg's office caused the row by releasing to journalists an excerpt from a forthcoming speech by the deputy prime minister which described those who want the legalisation of gay marriage postponed as bigots. Amid squawks from the right, Mr Clegg said he would never use such a word, but he did not repudiate the sentiment; nor was there any comfort for the (mostly) Christian objectors to this considerable step towards equal rights for gays from the Conservative senior partner in the coalition government. Which, given that only 24 years ago Section 28 of the Tories' Local Government Act banned councils from allowing schools to promote the acceptability of homosexuality as a pretended family relationship, is quite a step.
