Shadow faith minister resigns
A Labour shadow minister has resigned
after making what she deemed ‘misjudged’
comments relating to gay marriage.
Janet Daby suggested registrars who have
religious objections
to
same-sex marriage
should be protected from losing their jobs if
they refuse to certify the partnership.
Excluded?
A teenager whose video went viral after
arguing with his
teacher
that
there are
only two genders will not be allowed to
return to the school where he filmed the
confrontation.
The 17-year-old, called Murray by his
teacher on the film published online, has
not been permanently excluded. According
to an Aberdeenshire council spokesperson
‘the young man … has reached the end of
time
in compulsory education’, which
in
Scotland is 16.
