LGBT Rights in 2002

In collecting together my thoughts for this blog, I came across this piece from 2002. On 12th October of that year my union held it's first "trial" conference. I took the following from a short piece I placed in the branch magazine about it....

"...

We debated issues ranging from partnership rights to pride and passed seven motions unanimously on the following:

full partnership right equality

repeal of section 28

LGBT human rights worldwide 

equality at work act providing equality reps akin to safety reps

single equality act with single equality commission until which we should have a LGBT commission"...

It's interesting to note how far we have come since then apart from LGBT human rights worldwide
