A move in the European Union is behind David Cameron’s rush to enact ‘gay marriage’, claims the United Kingdom Independence Party<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

An EU report due to be voted through the EU Parliament later this year, they say, would see all marriages and civil contracts conducted in any EU country become legally binding in all other member states. Under the Berlinguer Report, a couple who are not permitted to marry in their home country could travel to another member state in order to wed, knowing that on their return home they would have to be regarded as married.<\/p>\n

Paragraph 40 of the Report would mean that any member state would have to grant ‘all social benefits and other legal effects’ such as legal recognition, tax breaks and benefit entitlements to a married couple, even if such a marriage did not exist in their own legal system.<\/p>\n

Mr Nigel Farage, leader of UKIP,\u00a0said: “Now we know why David Cameron has launched this highly contentious and disruptive legislation, apparently out of the blue.<\/p>\n

“If a couple were to marry in Belgium, Spain, Portugal or Sweden where same-sex marriage is possible, the EU will say that they have to be given the same legal rights in whichever member state they then chose to live \u2013 even if that state itself opposes the introduction of same-sex marriage. In essence the Berlinguer Report seeks to establish an EU-wide right to same-sex marriage.<\/p>\n

“It’s no surprise that the Prime Minister has kept quiet about this, even at the expense of cohesion in his own party. He has a hard enough time trying to force his own backbenchers to swallow both his dedication to keeping Britain in the EU and his wish for the state to interfere in the definition of marriage. To suggest that the two issues are in fact interconnected would have caused complete uproar.”<\/p>\n

However, according to one website<\/a><\/strong>, the\u00a0Berlinguer Report\u00a0has already been voted on by the European Parliament, in November 2010, and has no legislative status. \u00a0It is still part of the continuing libertarian process, of course. \u00a0However, another document, a two-and-a-half-page ‘roadmap,’ will be adopted in November 2013<\/a><\/strong>. \u00a0In dry language it speaks of ‘the importance of facilitating mutual recognition of civil status’ across the EU. \u00a0It is this document, itself building on the Berlinguer Report, which will lead to a legislative initiative from the EU Commission, the seat of power. \u00a0If David Cameron has already redefined marriage by that time, he will no doubt be all for other states recognising Britain’s sham ‘gay marriages’.<\/p>\n

Christian Voice views the European Union as a godless, corrupt, pretentious, expensive, bureaucratic, oligarchic expression of Antichrist.\u00a0 But it has tried to end the misery of bent cucumber phobia, a dibillatating disorder which affects dozens of people every year…<\/p>\n
