A FORMER mayor has demanded an apology for an accusation of unintentional discrimination against homosexuals after calling for more homes to be built for families.

John Hipkin, a Liberal Democrat councillor in Cambridge, says he is "enraged and distressed" that he is the subject of a complaint of 'heterosexism' - the unintentional discrimination towards or against non-heterosexuals due to cultural bias.
