Equality Bill [HL]

I take this opportunity to thank the noble Lord, Lord Lester, particularly for his point about scientologists. I am sure that I am not the only Member of your Lordships’ House who gets regular documentation from the Church of Scientology. I always look at it with a great deal of interest and sadness. I think, ““Goodness, I don’t like that””, but it does not offend me. I do not think that I have been proselytised. It is the Church of Scientology’s view. That is tolerance and is what I said about being tolerant of all beliefs and religious worship—I do not actually call it religious worship, but that is the way it is. It goes to my point that we live in a country where that is allowed and I want to make sure that we continue in that way.
