Ministers lose religious hate bid

[bellinghman]

As noted here, http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/4664398.stm, it looks like Parliament is no longer Tony's bitch.

This time, it's the Commons that passed Lords amendments to the stupid bill on Religious Hate. Stupid not because the intent was wrong, but because the wording made any mockery of religion into a hate crime.
