At last?

When the Civil Partnership Act was passed in 2004 it brought about the ridiculous situation whereby same sex couples could enter into such legal partnerships,but heterosexual couples could not - for them it was marriage or nothing.  It was accepted from day one that this was a nonsense, but it has taken a 14 year journey through the courts to put things right - and even now, the Government can if they wish ignore the Supreme Court's ruling that the 2004 Act was incompatible with human rights laws and simply leave things as they are.  But let's hope that common sense at last prevails, eh?
