I WAS angered to read in the national press that the word "married" is to be removed from Government records, documents and forms.

This will favour minorities such as gays and put them on an equal footing with heterosexual families.

This is destroying the family unit, which is the building block of a proper civilised society and is the final straw in a long list of destructive Labour policies.

There should be a public outcry against such discriminating decisions against married people.

I feel sad for the terrible legacy we are leaving our grandchildren with this dreadful mess.
