Prayers at Council Meetings

This question has raised it head again. I can't see how it infrings Human Rights.
Why can't anyone who does not want prayers at Council meetings just stand outside while prayers are being said. They are usually very short.
Why try and stop it for everyone.

I am a practising Christian and need Spiritual guidance. During the past three months it has been a great comfort. Also my Christian friends who have said prayers and also shown love and practical help.
I never force my beliefs on to any one else
