Has he no concept at all of how the legislature works in this country?
I think he has every idea. He is trying to put pressure on the Tories. Will they really wish for legal wrangling or to overturn such venerable legislation, which goes to the very heart of the country's unwritten constitution? This issue has the potential to create great protest.
I attended a house party with our local MP a few days ago. I was surprised that one of the questions posed to him concerned "gay marriage" and the level of ill-feeling it was causing to a few people.

It's a glorious distraction from watching the government try to murder the NHS, privatise the police and generally line the pockets of themselves and their mates.

Don't forget privatising education. It's the big 3 - health, education and police.

Fair point.
And everything that moves, frankly. Local government is hardly being left out of the equation – 'easy councils' etc. Slashed wages (but not for council bosses and executives, of course) etc etc.

You can't slash executive pay, or they'll all go and manage councils abroad.

Let them take to the streets holding banners proclaiming their intolerance for anybody's beliefs but their own. And let their pictures be taken under those banners.
