As a matter of clarity, I'd like to explain that the Archdruid, in her previous post, was referring to parliamentary proceedings, rather than the charming gentleman of northern extraction by the name of William who's been known to frequent the beer gardens of local hostelries in the summer months, calling out "Ee - quality!" at ladies of various ages and states of undress.
All charges with regards to assault were dropped against the Archdruid within weeks of the alleged incident, and William's new teeth are apparently very comfortable. The Archdruid would, I'm sure, like to distance herself from any suggestion that she was commenting in any way on this matter, as such comments might be seen as falling outside the boundaries of any legal agreement which might or might not be in place.

Equality Bill
We're relieved along with members of some churches that after the Lords struck out the Equality Bill amendments we can continue to select the people who work in the Community according to our religious beliefs.
Generally, we've always checked people against Deuteronomy 23. So Maurice the Monophysite is OK, as an Egyptian whose family have worked for mine for more than 3 generations, ever since my great-uncle Brigadier Monty Russell-Fitzroy brought Maurice's grandfather Maurice back at the end of the 2nd world war. But we won't employ Ammonites, or even Moabites. You could say we're quite Ruth-less on this one.
