My question is to the Prime Minister. Isn't it the case that, if your Religious Discrimination Bill is passed, even with your amendments, a school can sack an unmarried teacher because she's pregnant, if it's against the school's beliefs; a doctor can tell their patient that their sickness is a punishment from God because they're gay; and a student can be expelled because they're transgender? We all support protecting religious groups from victimisation. But why are you using the dying days of this parliament to push through a Trojan Horse for hate that will mean more discrimination, not less?
