"This is pretty simple, if a religious school or hospital or charity group is using government funds to operate then they must not have the power to sack or refuse to employ because of gender or sexuality."
It's not that simple at all.
If you give 'x' amount to a student at a public school, then why should you not give that same 'x' amount to a student at a private school?
If private schools didn't have at least equal funding then less students would be able to go to them.
Do you want to deny those kids an opportunity for a better education?
(Though all kids should be entitled to a good quality education)
You're using the funding issue to impose UN curriculum upon the school; those parents don't own the UN anything, they probably pay the taxes that school the rest of the nations kids.
Another can of works portraying itself as a great idea.
Don't any of you people ever read the bloody fine print?
