The Marriage (Same Sex Couples) Act 2013 is an Act of the Parliament of the United Kingdom which introduced same-sex marriage in England and Wales. The Act enables same sex couples to marry in civil ceremonies; ensures those religious organizations which wish to do so can opt in to marry; protects religious organisations and their representatives from successful legal, challenge if they do not wish to marry same sex couples; enables civil partners to convert their partnership to a marriage and enables individuals to change their legal gender without having to end their marriage.

No, the state should not be involved with any type of marriage at all.
@9MTYRRQConservative11mos11MO
Yes and churches should be forced to allow same sex marriages… love thy neighbour - unless he is homosexual.
@8DNQ9X6Conservative5yrs5Y
@939Q9GH3yrs3Y
No, marriage should be defined as between a man and woman and LGBT Marriage should be criminalized
@9PLDZTKConservative 10mos10MO
No but it is a personal view, people should live their own lives as they wish but should not keep shoving their views at other people. Just live as you wish.
@9P6LYBDConservative11mos11MO
Yes, but allow any officiary the right to refuse, however, provide support in finding someone that will.
@9DCCNZVConservative2yrs2Y
This isn’t any issue I need to care about
@99VVJ8C2yrs2Y
Yes as long as they don’t have children
@8W2Z45Y4yrs4Y
Shouldn't even be a question. They should be viewed as the same.
@8V89RZZConservative4yrs4Y
Yes so they can be miserable as everyone else
@8SJZR7QConservative4yrs4Y
No, but the financial and legal rights of same sex couples in a civil partnership should be equal to those of a married couple
@95MN9FVWomen's Equality3yrs3Y
I don't mind it but I don't feel comfortable seeing to girls or boys kissing
@948FYBLConservative3yrs3Y
churches should have the right to refuse same sex marriages and marriage should not be a matter of the state, they should be allowed a sort of civil union that maintains the same legal status as marriage but it shouldn't be called marriage.
@944ZZ39Conservative3yrs3Y
This is personal choice, not a concern.
@8S364WJ4yrs4Y
Yes, as long as straight couples are permitted to enter a civil partnership
@8CYQQNQ5yrs5Y
Dont really mind as long as it doesnt affect me
@8CL97RGConservative5yrs5Y
Yes but not at church where it is forbidden in their religion and as long as they are gay and not transgender

Yes, but also allow civil partnerships for mixed sex couples
@8SHH7RZConservative4yrs4Y
I don't agree with marriage at all
@8P59P584yrs4Y
Legal marriage between two people of the same sex should be accepted by society. So yes, I do support it. However, allow religious institutions to refuse same-sex ceremonies.
@8MYZLDD4yrs4Y
Yes, but I believe a man and Woman is a better structure for a child
@9BTX993Conservative2yrs2Y
I disagree, but let them do it, provided that religious establishments are allowed the right to refuse based on faith
@96WD46BConservative3yrs3Y
Yes. Let everyone be whoever they want to be.
@96NKNG43yrs3Y
Take the government out of marriage but not necessarily a religious decison.
@93M9LQDConservative3yrs3Y
I don't mind it, but prefer to not comment on something I dont fully understand/can comprehend fully, but I dont see a problem in it?
@8NSCG3Q4yrs4Y
Not personally yet I accept it is up to a person's free will to choose if they want to get married to someone of the same sex.
@8WJP7684yrs4Y
