Newsflash! Stonewall - Riot Cancelled


The silly buggers at Stonewall have finally decided they do believe in equality and have come out for gay marriage.
From the press release today. "Stonewall is pleased to be widening its campaigning objectives to include extending the legal form of marriage to gay people. Our policy position on this is as below:
"‘We seek to secure marriage for gay people as a civil vehicle on the same basis as heterosexual marriage, available in a registry office but without a mandate on religious organisations to celebrate it. We seek to retain civil partnerships for lesbian and gay people recognising their special and unique status.’"
What took you so long? Actually, you may not want to answer that.
Anyway, they're just in time to join the new Equal Love campaign.
Except Stonewall won't sign up to that - as it's campaigning for gay marriage and different-sex civil partnerships, which Stonewall don't support.
Oops!
