Scottish Government: Consult on same-sex marriage and registration of civil partnerships now!

Consult on same-sex marriage and registration of civil partnerships now

Greetings,

I just signed the following petition addressed to: Scottish Government.

----------------
Consult on same-sex marriage and registration of civil partnerships now

"We, the undersigned, call on the Scottish Government to bring forward a public consultation on same-sex marriage and registration of civil partnerships without delay, with a view to equalising the law to enable same-sex couples to marry, mixed-sex couples to register a civil partnership and religious organisations to solemnise same-sex marriages and civil partnerships if they wish to do so."

We think that two people who love each other should be able to get married.

It’s as simple as that.

We want to live in a Scotland where:

• Same-sex couples are allowed to get married if they want to
• Mixed-sex couples are allowed to register a civil partnership if they want to
• If religious organisations want to perform same-sex marriages and civil partnerships, they should be allowed to do so

We urge the Scottish Government to work quickly on making this a reality

Young people in their thousands have told us the law should be the same for everyone. Research shows the majority of Scots of all ages support marriage equality. This is a reality in 10 countries already, with several others moving in that direction – don’t let Scotland be left behind.

Join together with us and LOVE EQUALLY.
