The Sun.
The look on Lynne Featherstone's face says it all...
Here's the small print;
:: No religious organisation or individual minister can be compelled to
marry
same-sex couples or to permit this to happen on their premises;
:: It will be unlawful for religious organisations or their ministers to
marry
same-sex couples unless their organisation’s governing body has
expressly
opted in to provisions for doing so;
:: The Equality Act 2010 is to be amended to ensure no discrimination
claim
can be brought against religious organisations or individual ministers
for
refusing to marry a same-sex couple;
:: The legislation will explicitly state that it will be illegal for the
Church of England and the Church in Wales to marry same-sex couples and
that
Canon Law, which bans same-sex weddings, will continue to apply.
