Rejected petition PETITION TO LEGALISE GAY MARRIAGE

More details

This petition aims to take Britain into the 21st century supporting the right to marry for all UK citizens no matter what their sexual orientation. Civil Unions whilst an improvement do not confer the same rights as marriage leading to inequality in the system. Lets follow the example of Belgium, The Netherlands, Spain, Portugal and Iceland and allow all persons to enjoy the benefits of the wonderful institute of marriage.
