Stonewall will ask about religion

We've had an update from the gay lobby group Stonewall after we asked yesterday why religion wasn't mentioned in a survey they commissioned from YouGov (see original story below or here). Yes, Stonewall will tackle religious homophobia, we're glad to report.

I emailed Stonewall for a comment after our story and have now received this from their communications director, Vicky Powell:

We’re actually working on a survey around religion and gay people’s experiences of discrimination at the moment. This will be released later in the year.

We're obviously glad to hear it, and will look out for the report.
