But if you don`t make those forms available for use, regardless of where the political financing ends up heading, then that is a form of discrimination, as essentially you are getting assistance if your political opinions happen to coincide with yours. Now, even I would not necessarily argue that this is a form of discrimination that is particularly worth worrying about, and as I said, discrimination law over there is probably different to here, but in the UK you probably wouldn`t get away with it.

Surely there's no harm in checking that you are going to get bitten by a litigious employee somewhere down the road?
