ILGA Europe: Top Of The Euro Pops

'Britain is now the European capital of gay rights. Just days before International Day against Homophobia and Transphobia, the UK has emerged as the best country in the continent for gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex people to exercise their legal rights, according to the first study of its kind, to be published on Tuesday.
'Britain's recognition of civil partnerships and its anti-discrimination laws have propelled it to the top of the European International Lesbian and Gay Association Europe (ILGA-Europe) index, which rates 49 countries on more than 40 categories...'

The Independent, which, according to a recent survey by Fagburn.com has the least gay news coverage of any broadsheet, and seem content with just reprinting the occasional press release they get sent.
Well done.
