Sorry to be thick but what do you see as liberal? The council or the over-ruling?

Good on the couple for the overturn,I'm not homophobic but some of these laws are bonkers,& the dipsticks who make them should be given ten years hard labour!

Surely the decision should be made on whether they are suitable to be parents or not and nothing else. What if they were vegetarians, didn't like traveling abroad or something really stupid. If they can bring up their kids in a safe and loving family they are good enough aren't they? As long as they are not extremists of some form or nature.

Liberals run the show mate, whether its telling Christians they can't adopt, or getting you to fill out countless A4 sheets of paper regarding mind numbing and stupidly obvious risk assessments and method statements..................

You''d of thought so..........

No doubt they will push their faith on the vulnerable, impressionable foster kids. (Sorry if that seems presumptuous!). It's not right for foster parents to have strong personal opinions on a subject - they should be objective and let the kids make up their mind.

Religion

I found it a tad ironic that their extreme views had them banned and that has now been overuled, therefore their extreme views on religion and bigotry are okay!

 

So non believers and loving couples are wrong?

That can apply to most of us that had to attend assembly and sing hymns at school. Isn't that the same thing? Same applies to the extreme views. Who decided that I was religious and what that religion was when I was at school?

Nowhere in that article did I ever get the impression that the couple were bigots!
