At last. Lord Lucan had finally died, or at least they have released a death certificate so he could be rise from the dead albeit unlikely after 42 years. I find it very odd that hew declared dead in 1999, but the death certificate had to wait 17 years. Someone must have had a big pile to go through.
Meanwhile, the bakery that refused to bake a celebration cake displaying some words in praise of the gay community finds itself back in court trying to overturn the damages case it lost a while back. They are backed by some sort of Christian society (who I guess is funding the appeal), whilst the damaged party have a 'human rights' group fighting their corner.
It's an interesting battle, rights versus beliefs and in my opinion there can be no winner. I'm almost certain that the rights will win over beliefs, but only because law is (usually) based on cold hard facts, rather than a belief system. I can't imagine any divine intervention will manifest itself, but it would be good if it did.
