Torchwood: Miracle Day is a prime example. Bulking out 10 episodes with a story that would have been better told in five.

A group of us met with our local MP and she also asked for us (and about conversion therapy).
We're fighting on all fronts.

I'm sorry?
The perception?
I'm not perceived as being Asexual; I am Asexual.
Is this Ace erasure by the UK government?

"The Act does not name ‘asexuality’ under sexual orientation specifically. There are however situations in which an asexual person may already be protected by the Act – for example, the Act bans discrimination based on the perception that someone has a protected characteristic."

Last month, MP Annalise Dodds, was asked if Asexuality would be included in the UK Equality Act.
She said no, so I emailed her and asked why.
This week I got a reply. The official response is;
#Asexuality

Not available on Prime in the UK; you have to pay for it. Lucky I have my own copy.

I've watched it so many times, but forget when Bester turns up. So it's a wonderful happy surprise when he pops up on the screen.

It's especially annoying that in the section for religion, it specifically states that you are protected if you have no faith.
If they can put it for religion, then surely they can put it for sexual orientation.
