Ed Miliband Calls for Gay Marriage Equality

THE GUARDIAN: Labour leader records video for Out4Marriage calling for right to hold same-sex marriages to be extended to faith groups


Churches and other religious institutions should be free to stage gay weddings, Ed Miliband has said.

The Labour leader backed government plans to legislate for same-sex marriages as a sign that Britain is a "modern country".

However, he went further than ministers in calling for the right to hold same-sex marriages to be extended to faith groups as well. » | Press Association | Thursday, September 27, 2012
