    Queen's signed it (if she didn't we'd have probably ignored her/got rid of her) and well, she is a rainbow fan!

    First wedding's expected next summer, possibly earlier!

    I've just been looking on David Cameron's Facebook page. God, I'm surprised on how angry some people were about this. The fact that some of them got a very unhealthy number of "likes" as well

    Not all of Britain, just England and Wales. Scotland will join us, but they're going through their own devolved parliament to work with the Church of Scotland. Northern Ireland is currently exempt from the legalisation; I hope that is overturned soon. :frowning2:

    Equal marriage bill for England and Wales given Royal Assent and is now law

    This has now cheered me up, England and Wales now has equal marriage, The Queen signed the Bill yesterday giving it "Royal Assent" and is now Law. Seems the prayers by the "Christian Concern" have gone unanswered lol

    Wow! Wow! Wow! I cannot believe how happy I am with what has happened in my country. A few years ago this was only a dream for us. Never thought this would happen this quickly and now look where we are. Just wish we didn’t have to wait a year before any of us can actually marry!!! (!)(&&&):eusa_danc

    I was so happy when I read this, I'm actually considering coming out to some people in real life. :grin:

    And I just loved the Queen's quote: “I’m the head of a monarchy that began in the ninth century, and I’m apparently more modern than Chris Christie."

    HA! Take that, Chris Christie!
    Whoever you are.

    One more reason I wish I could move to the UK!

    Chris Christie is the governor of New Jersey in the US. She was calling him out on not yet signing a bill, one that I'm pretty sure will legalise gay marriage in New Jersey if he does sign it. :slight_smile:
