They should all be civil unions, and perhaps we could experiment with time defined contract unions. Personally, I’m of the view that the state shouldn’t be in the marriage business at all.

Simon waxes here. Am not surprised and I do appreciate the amount of time and effort that Labour Equality people have put into this work/campaign - I’m not a party member anymore and feel grand about it at the moment.

If I was an original Labour party member and was looking at how completly the tail had taken over the dog I'd be fairly miffed and doing my best to organise a resistance against the Rabbitt takeover.

Time is not right and all that other bullshit. Ride the back of the bus another while there please. Does the Deputy leader know where she actually stands and is she at odds with the rest of the party? Labour is blurring their stances on everything more and more, perhaps all this lack of clarity is what is helping them to lose support? <blockquote>According to party sources Rabbitte told the conference that he personally supported full equality on same-sex marriage, but he believed neither the public nor members of Labour’s parliamentary party were likely to support a referendum on the issue at this time</blockquote> Meanwhile Rabbitte becomes a parrot and copies what Bertie said. Please don't stand up for what you believe in Pat. Leave others dictate what kind of man you are.
