Why a Democratic Equality Act?
The already existing Equality Act (2010) is meant to secure equal, fair treatment of people in the workplace; and in the provision of goods and services. It forbids direct or indirect discrimination against employees/aspirant employees/former employees on the basis of: their religious beliefs, sex (including people having undergone sex reassignment surgery, more commonly known as "transgenders"), sexual orientation, ethnic background, age and possible disabilities. The Human Rights Act 1998 incorporates the European Convention on Human Rights into UK law and have inadequately protected religious liberty in Article 9.
The Human Rights Act 1998 incorporates the European Convention on Human Rights and grants protection ‘based upon Human rights’; the Equality Act prohibits direct or indirect discrimination on a prohibited ground.
The principles governing the Equality Act 2010, the Human Rights 1998, are all very noble in essence. But in practice, multiple cases are telling a different story, in which they are increasingly ignored where defenders of traditional family are concerned. With the abandonment of our society's core values, individuals who remain attached to traditions are being marginalised and casually discriminated against for the benefit of the followers of "progressive" politics. This is a phenomenon of intimidation which is paving the way for the set up of a dictatorial Super State where opinions contrary to political correctness are in danger of severe penalisation, unless we challenge it!
Relationships, and especially marriage are at the very centre of this dangerous tide, as they are the objects of constant and incoherent "redefinitions" under EU policies. Standing in favour of traditional marriage is now branded as "bigoted" and "homophobic" by the supposedly tolerant mainstream narrative right from inside primary schools. We ought to resist and defeat this threatening agenda, for the sake of our future and the future of our children. Hence the need for reinforcement of the Equality Act 2010 in favour of freedom of speech. WBF International calls this initiative the Democratic Equality Act 2015. Our aim is to collect a minimum of one million voices across Europe, through a petition, in order to propose it to the United Nations.
