David Cameron faces ‘biggest Tory rebellion in modern times’ over gay ‘marriage’ plans

LONDON, November 28, 2012 ( LifeSiteNews.com ) – With nearly 120 MPs ready to rebel against David Cameron ’s plans to create same-sex “marriage,” a project that appeared in no Tory policy book during the last election campaign, the UK prime minister is facing a crucial test of his leadership of the Conservative Party . The Daily mail  revealed  this week that 118 Tory MPs have written to their constituents that they intend to oppose any bill brought forward to change the legal definition of marriage, a development that the Daily Mail is calling the “biggest Tory rebellion in modern times”. Parliamentary sources have said that a bill could be released “within a few weeks”. Since the announcement of the plan to redefine marriage in September 2011, the plan has met with steadily increasing opposition not only from conservative Christian groups, but from within Cameron’s own party. The government angered voters when its public consultation only allowed discussion on “how” to legal

When David Cameron committed the Government to supporting same-sex marriage some months ago, he declared: ‘I don’t support gay marriage despite being a Conservative. I support gay marriage because I’m a Conservative.’ His argument being that the party should support a long-term commitment in any relationship. The unexpected policy shift caused uproar in the Tory Party in Parliament and across the country. A poll by Catholic Voice of 550 gay men and women suggested only 40 per cent identified the change in marriage as their priority Now, a submission by the Church of England into the Government’s consultation on gay marriage has warned of an historic division between the Church’s canon law — that marriage is between a man and a woman — and Parliament. It suggests the schism could even lead to ‘disestablishment’, a split between the Church and the State, and the removal of the Queen as Supreme Governor of the Church. Calculated Despite the opposition of ever

David Cameron is gay obsessed with destroying Marriage

When he became Tory leader seven years ago, the youthful and telegenic David Cameron pledged to transform the blue-rinse image of his party and boost its membership by attracting thousands of young, ethnic and gay members. In doing so, he would destroy forever the Tories’ reputation as the ‘nasty party’ as these new ‘inclusive’ members joined the 300,000 activists whose average age was 64 ‘I was elected Leader of the Conservative Party on a mandate to change and modernise the party,’ he said. ‘I want to increase membership. I want to see a broader  base. I want to see a significant increase  in the number of members from all communities.’ One of the scariest things for the Tories is that three in four of those people who voted for Cameron in 2010, but say they won't again, cite gay marriage as the reason He hugged hoodies, embraced huskies in the Arctic circle and placed a daft wind turbine on the roof of his Notting Hill home in an attempt to woo new Tories .

Secretary of State for Northern Ireland Owen Paterson  A Conservative cabinet minister has declared his opposition to same-sex marriage in the most significant challenge yet to reform plans backed by the prime minister. Northern Ireland secretary Owen Paterson made clear his hostility to the change in a letter to a constituent, seen by the PoliticsHome website. "Having considered this matter carefully, I am afraid I have come to the decision not to support gay marriage," he wrote in response to an appeal for support. David Cameron has personally championed the change, which is out for public consultation, but is under pressure from backbench Tories to drop the move.  Defence secretary Philip Hammond said recently that it was "not a priority" for the government after the Liberal Democrat policy was blamed by some for poor local election results. His Cabinet colleague went further, expressing direct opposition. In a letter dated last week, Mr Paterson sa
