40 years of legal sin

Channel 4 are about to start a Gay Season to celebrate 40 years since the legalisation of Homosexuality. That's interesting, we're about to 'celebrate' 40 years since something else was legalised - Abortion! Could there be a link here? Was the devil wandering the corridors of the Houses of Parliament in 1967? Was he sitting in comfort at Number 10? I think so!
