FRENCH PRIME MINISTER PROMISES GAY MARRIAGE

France’s new Prime Minister has promised to legalise same-sex marriage and gay adoption in the country within a year.
“In the first half of 2013, the right to marriage and adoption will be open to all couples, without discrimination,” Prime Minister Jean-Marc Ayrault told parliament on Tuesday.
“Our society is evolving, lifestyles and mentalities are changing. The government will respond to that,” he said.
The announcement followed a statement on Paris Pride day over the weekend by government spokesperson Najat Vallaud-Belkacem that a marriage equality law will be passed next year.
During his campaign for the 2012 presidential election, President François Hollande also declared his support for same-sex marriage.
His Socialist Party has an absolute majority in the French parliament, which means that the proposed law should be passed with ease.
Under current law, same-sex couples in France can enter into civil unions, known as ‘pacte civil de solidarité’ or PACS, but not marriage.
In Europe, same-sex marriage is legal in Belgium, Denmark, Iceland, the Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain and Sweden.
Well the country known to be kinky bastards wud have looked a tad bit hypocritical if they didn’t legalise gay marriage at this point lol. You gotta love election year, politicians love riding the homo band wagon when it suits them. The ANCYL did the same thing during the KZN pride. Words r words… not everyone cares for lip service show me corresponding action then u might find a vote from me
