So if the 'Freedom of Association' is used to allow Trade Unions to kick out people who don't have the same political beliefs, although they're not a meant to be a political group, wouldn't that mean that other groups (eg churches, BNP etc) could exclude people who didn't share the same beliefs of that group. That is not the case, as Trade Unions are allowed to ban people, but other groups(the Left of course decide which ones) can't.

The Human Rights Act along other things of that sort(eg EU rules) are just a mechanism for giving the Left power to control things without the inconvenience of the ballot box.

IIRC PLO Leader Yasser Arafat visited(or tried to) Bethlehem at Christmas to celebrate the birth of Christ.
