Marriage Registration Certificates

Proceeding contribution from Caroline Spelman (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 8 December 2015. It occurred during Debate on Marriage Registration Certificates.

Of course we can make this party political, but is it worth it? We have waited two centuries for this change, during which time the Labour party has been in power and had ample opportunity to make a change, and my party has finally also got into power, after a long wait. Could we not just drop this party political approach? That is what annoys people about politics. I am just saying, “Come on. We can do this as private Members. Let’s do this. Let’s do it differently.”
