The Tories pro-marriage? Back in the real world, if any specific policy is ever formulated in this area, then it will doubtless propose payment in respect of any partnership that can be devised, no doubt even between those who are in fact legally married to other people entirely. For that matter, since the benefit system already pays out specifically for "polygamous partners", why imagine that any new allowance would be restricted to relationships of precisely two persons?
Incidentally, just as a matter of fact, the old Married Couple’s Tax Allowance was unrelated to having children, or not. Child Benefit is about supporting children. The Married Couples Tax Allowance was about supporting marriage.
