Putting Asunder, Joining Together

Graham James of Norwich is as liberal as you could possibly imagine. When even he is against the redefinition of legal marriage, then they really ought to take notice. But they won't.

Ed Miliband will, though. Never having threatened to whip this, he should now undertake not to include it in Labour's manifesto, either. It was in no one's last time. But both Coalition parties pretty much have to have it in 2015.

Labour does not, so it should not. Instead, it should simply make it clear that if anyone tried to bring this back as a Private Member's Bill, then Labour MPs would continue to have a free vote on it, as has always been the case.
