La Manif Pour Tous supporters display banners on Nelson’s Column in Trafalgar Square on Sunday 24th March 2013<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

A rally organised by French ex-patriates brought more than one thousand French and British supporters of marriage into Trafalgar Square on a chilly Sunday afternoon yesterday.<\/p>\n

The rally was timed to co-incide with a massive pro-marriage ‘manifestation’ in Paris<\/a><\/strong>.\u00a0 The Paris event was the second of his kind, the London protest the first.<\/p>\n

Christian politician Alan Craig was invited to give a speech and accused the French President and the British Prime Minister of not listening to the people.<\/p>\n

‘Mr Cameron likes to export democracy around the world,’ he said, ‘often with bombs and bullets’, yet he will not listen to people in his own back yard.’<\/p>\n

A group of around 100 pro-sodomy counter-demonstrators sported rainbow flags and chanted ‘Shame on you’.\u00a0 They were largely ignored by the good-natured pro-marriage supporters.<\/p>\n

A fair-sized selection of posters, flags, banners and some chanted slogans, emphasised what the protestors saw as a radical departure from the natural order in redefining marriage to include homoxsexuals.<\/p>\n

One poster pointed out – in French and English – that we are all born from a man and a woman.<\/p>\n

Damien Montgieux, of organising group ‘La Manif pour tous’ (‘demonstration for all’) told Christian Voice that he was happy the event had gone off peacefully.<\/p>\n

Mr Montgieux was pleased that so many took time on their day of rest to come to London on a bitterly cold day but he observed that in Paris, on the same afternoon, 100’s of thousands marched to the Arc de Triomphe. \u00a0There was an age difference between Paris and London as well.<\/p>\n

‘In Trafalgar Square, the average person was middle-aged’, he told us, ‘But in France the protestors are much younger. \u00a0The youth come out to stand up for ‘le mariage’. \u00a0It is cool to do so.<\/p>\n

‘I am very hopeful that in France homosexual marriage will be defeated,’ he concluded, ‘I should like to be as sure about Britain.’<\/p>\n
