Proceeding contribution from Lord Hughes of Woodside (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 24 October 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Education Bill.
Education Bill
I do not know why my noble friend repeats the story that we are trying to stop people understanding the background, history and traditions of this country. Nothing is further from the truth. We are saying that of course one should be able to teach all faiths at any time; we have no problem with that. However, we should not insist on collective worship from which some people are excluded.
