Inherent Requirements Law undermines freedom and diversity : Comments

Political bodies like the Greens aren’t forced by law to employ climate change deniers and the ALP doesn’t have to employ union haters. Imagine if they did.

Freedom of association should also apply to those one chooses not to associate with. The university of Sydney's student council tried to de register the catholic association for not admitting non catholics. That is patently obscene, and fortunately the University Admin nipped it in the bud.

While exclusions based on race alone are not OK, the right to free association has to be respected in the arena of belief. Blanket laws always have innocent victims.
