UK Conservative Party loses billionaire donor over ‘gay marriage’ push

Image
LONDON , March 5, 2014  – One of the UK Conservative Party ’s biggest donors is reportedly pulling his funding after the party created “gay marriage” last year. The billionaire banker, philanthropist and arts patron Michael Hintze is “fed up” with the liberal leanings of the current Tory leadership, reports the  Daily Mail . Hintze, a Catholic who has helped the Vatican restore valuable art works by Michelangelo, has donated at least £1.2 million to the Conservative Party and given loans of at least £2.5 million more since 2005, according to estimates by the  Daily Mail . The paper reports that Hintze is calling in the loans and has thrown his support into UKIP, “just as the party needs a fortune to pay for next year’s General Election.” The report did not specify that Hintze would be switching his financial attention to another party. Shakespeare quotes “a Tory insider” who said, “Michael is fed up with David Cameron and [Chancellor] George Osborne and doesn’t see why he s

Homosexual marriages lies

Crowd in support of immoral Homosexual Marriage (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) In Great Britain   Patricia Morgan points  to the data that explodes the argument Cameron's Tories are making that gay marriage is somehow a conservative idea that will strengthen marriage as a social institution . It hasn't happened in Scandinavia , Spain , Massachussetts , or anywhere else that has adopted gay marriage. In Holland she points out the number of first babies born to unwed couples has doubled to 40 percent since gay marriage was adopted. It is as absurd as the oft-repeated argument that gay marriage will somehow improve a state's economy or that a marriage amendment will hurt jobs. Here's the thing they don't believe that you and I do: truth matters. If we speak with love, conviction and courage, on behalf of the timeless truths that government has no right to redefine—in the end we will win.

Evidence: Homosexual marriage does not strengthen families it weakens marriage

A passionate rallying call, it was supposed  to encapsulate David Cameron ’s political creed, boldly blending the progressive and the traditional.  ‘ Conservatives believe in the ties that bind us; that society is strong when we make vows to each other,’ the Prime Minister triumphantly declared at the Tory party conference in October 2011.  ‘So I don’t support gay marriage in spite of being a Conservative. I support it because I am a Conservative.’  Speaking yesterday on Radio  4’s Today programme, after the Commons voted on Monday to allow gay marriage in England and Wales, Mr Cameron said: ‘There will be young boys in schools today who are gay, who are worried about being bullied, who are worried about what society thinks of them, who can see that the highest Parliament in the land has said that their love is worth the same as anyone else’s love and that we believe in equality.  'The ties that bind us': For the PM's inner circle of self-styled modern

Cameron splits his party & country over immoral homosexual marriage

A bill to legalise  gay marriage in Britain  has passed the country's parliament and will now go the country's upper house, the  House of Lords , for consideration. MPs voted 366 to 161 in favour of the bill. The vote followed a marathon debate on Monday in which  Mr Cameron  was forced to make a deal with the opposition  Labour party  to defeat a bid by his own Conservative MPs to scupper the bill. Cameron has effectively divided his own party and for what benefit: immorality! Right-wing Tories had proposed an amendment to allow heterosexual couples to form civil partnerships - a move that was condemned by Mr Cameron's office as a "wrecking amendment" that would have delayed the introduction of the new law. Although the motion was easily defeated with Labour's help, the depth of the  Conservatives'  divisions were made clear when 121  Tory MPs  backed a separate plan to allow officials to opt out of carrying out gay marriage. It too was defeate

UKIP set to cause ‘political earthquake’ as governing Conservatives flounder on Immoral Homosexuality

 In Britain , local council elections are seen as a window into the political future, and last week’s surge by Nigel Farage ’s United Kingdom Independence Party has the ruling Conservative Party deeply worried.  UKIP has been attracting former Tories - both voters and MPs - disillusioned with Prime Minister David Cameron ’s “modernizing” efforts that have included a bill for “gay marriage” and broken promises on a European referendum.  Nigel Farage Nigel Farage is said to be “jubilant” after Friday’s poll results that saw UKIP electing 147 councillors, of whom 139 were gains. He called it a sign of a “sea change” in British politics and declared that UKIP is now the “official opposition.” This was literally true in Lincolnshire, where UKIP totally replaced the Conservatives in 16 seats. By comparison, Labour, the official Official Opposition party, said it was doing “reasonably” having won 35 local seats. Despite Tory accusations that UKIP is nothing more than a reacti

English: DAVOS/SWITZERLAND, 29JAN10 - David Cameron, Leader of the Conservative Party, United Kingdom, speaks during the session 'Rethinking Government Assistance' in the Congress Centre of the Annual Meeting 2010 of the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, January 29, 2010. (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) February 11, 2013 ( Mercatornet.com ) - David Cameron ’s same-sex marriage bill was voted on for the first time in the British Parliament on Tuesday. Confusingly, the debate and vote were called the “second” reading, as the first “reading” took place when the draft bill was laid before Parliament, giving members and everyone else their first opportunity to read the proposed legislation. At 50-odd pages long , the bill amends dozens of acts of Parliament stretching back to 1533. One would have thought that, for such a complex document with profound legislative consequences and social effects, not least for the established Church of England, parliamentarians would

Split among Tories on gay ‘marriage’ a ‘disaster for Cameron,’ says top marriage campaigner

 David Cameron, Leader of the Conservative Party, United Kingdom, Photo credit: Wikipedia ) LONDON, February 5, 2013 ( LifeSiteNews.com ) – With  the passage  of the government’s gay “marriage” bill today, Prime Minister David Cameron ’s days as leader of the Conservative Party may be numbered, according to a top marriage campaigner and one of the UK's leading newspapers. The bill passed overwhelmingly earlier this evening, but at the cost of the cohesion of the party, and possibly the next general election. In tonight’s vote, the Daily Mail reports that of 303 Tory MPs in the House, 139 voted against the wishes of their leader, a sign that the Conservative Party is struggling with a crisis of unity. Today Cameron, faced with the biggest Tory rebellion in the party’s history, was forced to rely on support from political rivals Labour and the Liberal Democrats to pass his legislation. The majority of those refusing to support “gay marriage” were backbenchers, but the
