Yes, they are. A marginalised section of society's opportunity to bring themselves up to the level of the rest of the country who can already get married is of much greater importance than issues facing the majority of the electorate. Issues that, whilst important, can wait - especially considering this piece of legislation has had just about enough of a wait, thanks.

essential that it is passed sooner rather than later (as it should have been passed years ago), so that equality prevails, bigotry is given a kicking and we as a society can move on and this no longer has to be an issue.
