In California, the state has just changed the law so it is now no longer a felony if you knowingly pass on the HIV virus. This includes giving blood without telling the blood bank. [Link] Another new law means you can go to jail if, as a health care worker, you use the wrong gender pronoun when referring to a transgender patient. [Link] A new bill states that companies must give employees 72 hours' notice if immigration officers are investigating their residency status – or they are fined. [Link] Ninety percent of California sex offenders will no longer be required to register with law enforcement for life under a bill. [Link] This is the sort of dangerous stuff that happens when you have loony left/liberals in power. It's a stark warning to Britain. Edited by Penge Eagle (14 Oct 2017 10.36am)

Ah, California. Where political correctness was born and the 'sue,sue,sue' anything that moves money-making machine . We slag off Europe but from what I can see Americanisation of our UK culture, socially and commercially, has been much more damaging and ugly whereas Europeans have bought a bit of refinement and style.

It's also a warning about what happens if you delegate lawmaking to states. Just imagine if Britain allowed the counties to make their own laws I would guess that East Sussex would be close on the trail of California, especially with that looney Caroline Lucas running the show

People knock the past but it's swings and roundabouts. In some ways it was worse and in some ways it was better. But in terms of how the sexes felt about themselves it was a lot better. Women were happier and male suicide was a lot lower in the fifties for example. Progressivism is selling a turd as progress.....As Blur once said....'Modern life is rubbish'.

There is actually a different way of looking at this,though it won't appeal to the frothers amongst us. 1.Its an example of what happens when free market right wing liberalism is dominant 2.Its an example of the prevalent "small government regulation" ethos. 3.California is a stark reminder of the American dream in action;massive wealth disparities, f--k your neighbour,low taxes,lots of image and little substance...

Well,Stirling who would have thought you knew so much about the happiness or unhappiness of woman many years before you were even born. Virtually impossible to get away from an abusive husband? Trapped in a loveless marriage with someone you hate and they hate you because of an unwanted pregnancy? Husband raping you not being illegal? Taking for granted you will be paid far less than a man doing the same work? Being told "go and powder your pretty little face" and "leave the important things to the boys"? Dying from a back street abortion? Bring back the good old days?
