    Same here.

    Did anyone see the recent programme about AIDS & it's effect on the gay community in the 1980s.

    You could be right Staffslad that it is promotion not the practice thereof

    Basically, it was a law that prevented teachers from telling schoolchildren that it's okay to be gay.

    Just had a quick look and it forbade local authorities from promoting homosexuality. It was enacted in 1988 and also affected maintained schools.

    Serction 28

    Section 28 was a law making homosexuality a criminal offence

    After Section 28 homosexuality was decriminalised
