	Roy Hattersley on Baroness Young \| Special reports \| Guardian Unlimited
		Baroness Young is anxious to avoid confusion with her namesake - as witness a reproof she issued in the House of Lords on April 11: "It would help the whole debate if the noble baroness did not keep saying that there are two Baroness Youngs.
		She is also the Baroness Young who says, without a hint of self-parody, "My concern, as always, is the protection of young people." The rest of us want to send little boys up chimneys and sell little girls into white slavery.
		Although the Baroness Young of whom I write is always anxious to emphasise the support she receives from Muslims, her attitude towards morality is identical to the one that motivated the Third Crusade.

		But Young argued that the bill itself was very unusual, as lowering the age of consent did not form part of Labour's general election manifesto and was therefore not subject to the Salisbury Convention, under which the Lords agree not to vote down bills deemed to have been sanctioned by the electorate.
		Baroness Young and her cohorts are fighting tooth and nail against the opening up the permissive and libertine floodgates.
		Baroness Young thundered: "Sixteen-year-olds, still children much of the time, need protection, especially at a time when permissive social morals are dramatically undermining marriage and the family." She added: "I do not think there is a moral equivalence between heterosexuals and homosexuals."
