If civil unions were recognised in law there would also be the necessary legal framework to protect the recognition of those rights, much in the same way we now have specific legislation against discrimination in the work place on the grounds of ethnic background and gender. Jerrek can bleat on all he likes about ignoring these unions should they come to pass, but at the end of the day he won`t have any choice about whether he recognises them or not.
