QUEEN ELIZABETH II APPROVES SAME SEX MARRIAGE IN ENGLAND AND WALES, SCOTLAND TO DEBATE THIS SOON
England and Wales became the 16th and 17th countries in the world to recognize gay marriage after Queen Elizabeth II gave “royal assent” to a same-sex marriage bill. Under the new law, gay men and women will be able to join together in civil ceremonies or in church services — although no religious denomination will be forced to carry out such services. Cheers, laughter and clapping broke out in the House of Commons when Speaker John Bercow announced the bill had been approved. “The fact that the bill passed through both Houses (Commons and Lords) undefeated is a huge accomplishment for the government,” said Equalities Minister Maria Miller. “This is an historic moment that will resonate in many people’s lives. I am proud that we have made it happen and I look forward to the first same sex wedding by next summer. The title of this bill might be ‘marriage’ but its fabric is about freedom and respect.”
