United Kingdom Slated For Destruction By Hordes Of Locusts...
Man-on-dog nuptials are just around the corner.
The end is nigh...
At least 1,200 ceremonies are confirmed as being scheduled already, according to figures from councils compiled by the BBC News website.On a serious note, kudos to the United Kingdom and South Africa for treating homosexuals as equals deserving of the respect afforded to the rest of us.
Registrars are preparing for the first ceremonies, with couples permitted to register from Monday morning.
Campaigners says the law ends inequalities for same-sex couples.
The first ceremonies under the Civil Partnerships Act can take place in Northern Ireland on 19 December, followed by Scotland the next day and England and Wales on 21 December.
Under the law, couples who want to form a partnership must register their intentions with local councils. Unlike marriages, the signing of the legal partnership papers does not need to happen in public.
One day, I hope the United States will follow suit...
