Is the act helping, do you think it’s a good thing or a bad thing – vote yes for good, no for bad!
The legislative groundwork for the Hate Crime and Public Order Act was laid through rigorous debates, public consultations, and a thorough legislative process.
The Act’s passage was not without controversy, as it sought to tread the fine line between protecting individuals from hate crimes and preserving freedom of speech.

Another distraction political stunt by Dumza Yousless and the witless Greens. Serious Politics requires serious Government , but we don't have it and until this totally incompetent useless bunch of Clowns are shown the door things will not get better.đŸ™„

By creating laws to protect certain minority groups in society tells me that those people are MORE equal than others. It’s very divisive. There is sufficient legislation in place to protect every member of society.

The real source of hate is religion. Politicians are cowards who would rather oppress the people than tackle religious groups.
