The Rule of Law, Not Harvey's Law

Like Harvey Price, I am both mixed-race and disabled, and I am no stranger to abuse on both counts. But if some crimes are "hate crimes", then what are the others? Love crimes?

It should be, and it is, illegal to assault someone, or what have you. There should be the same sentencing and so forth whether your victim was a man or a woman, black or white, whatever. The perception of the victim as to the motive should have no bearing on the matter.

Another hung Parliament is coming, and we need our people to hold the balance of power in it. I will stand for this seat of North West Durham, if I can raise the £10,000 necessary to mount a serious campaign. Please email davidaslindsay@hotmail.com. Very many thanks.
