Next Saturday: 17th September 2011
Join the movement for Secularism: march with us for human rights this coming Saturday 17th September!
We protest against:
- the privileged status of the churches under Article 17 of the TFEU (Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union)
- the privileged position of religious organisations in politics and the law
- the special status of the Vatican in the United Nations
- state-funded faith schools
- the economic privilege and political influence of the Vatican
We promote:
- freedom of religion, freedom of conscience and freedom of speech
- women’s equality and reproductive rights
- equal rights for LGBT people in all the European Union
- a secular Europe – democratic, peaceful, open and just, immune to the clandestine influence of privileged religious (or other) organisations
- one law for all, no religious exemptions from the law
- state neutrality in matters of religion and belief
The march will begin at 10.30 am leaving from Temple Place (Victoria Embankment), and the rally will take place from 12.30-2.30pm at Richmond Terrace opposite Downing Street.
