So the UK Government are finally proposing instating same sex marriages, I wanted to know your thoughts as I just wrote to my MP: "Dear Chris Evans, Recently David Camrons moves around equal marriage have been heavily publicised in the press. As a student activist and liberations campaigner I wanted to write to you to clarify your position on the issue. You have probably heard all the old cliché "Why can two people of the same sex who love each other marry, yet two people who hate each other can?" but you have to see the point they are making. We are living in more liberal communities than ever before with intolerance towards sexual orientation slowly dying out so it only seems right that we recognise same sex marriages as legally binding and do not just grant civil partnerships to "shut people up" which are symbolically not the same. Whilst the civil partnership is similar to marriage the segregated system of family law treats same-sex couples as though they are different and inferior by not extending all of the rights associated with the bonds of marriage, as well as this currently all religious celebrants are banned from conducting marriage or civil partnerships regardless of their beliefs. As you can already see our current legislation is far from providing equality, and it is surprising to see a conservative pushing for this after their move to disenfranchise students with their hike in tuition fees, scrapping of EMA, and not getting involved with the recent controversy over the banning of female bishops. In short I hope you are liberal in your beliefs and will support the move to instate same sex marriages. I look forward to your response. Yours sincerely, Christian James-Watkins"
