Victory!

Every now and again sanity wins through. We must cherish these increasingly rare moments.
The Christian couple, Joe and Helen Roberts, who were interrogated by heavy-handed Lancashire police in Fleetwood as they tried to advertise the fact locally that the Bible states that the practice of homosexuality is sinful, have had their rights vindicated. The possibility of free speech continues to hang on by a tenuous thread in our nation
The couple were awarded £40,000 to cover legal costs and a further £10,000 damages by Wyre Borough Council.
Better still ,the Home Secretary is shortly to issue new guidelines which should protect rights of free speech.
Even that vociferous homosexual apologist Peter Tatchell had been horrified by the abuse of basic, British freedoms.

                            Hmm. Have been trying to think which rock singer this reminds me of.
