My biggest regret as MP is voting against gay marriage I read @nickygumbel blog in the middle of the night before the vote when agonising-wish I’d spoken to him. I will regret it all of my life but truly hope that all same sex marriages live happily ever after #Pride #Love #LGBT
If gay marriage bill takes sex out of marriage could a sister marry a sister to avoid inheritance tax? telegraph.co.uk/news/religion/…
Breaking Twitter break to say... NADINE FUCKING DORRIES AT DCMS 😱 WHAT, AND I CAN'T STRESS THIS ENOUGH, THE ABSOLUTE FUCK #ArchaeologyIsFucked
