Conor Burns MP.

A homosexual Tory MP has said that he would need “serious convincing” that churches would not be forced to marry same-sex couples if the government redefines marriage.

Belfast born Conor Burns also said in his interview with Northern Irish paper The News Letter: “I marvel at why we are bringing this forward; there is no clamour for this at all within the gay community”.
The MP for Bournemouth West, Branksome East and Alderney expressed unease about the Prime Minister’s assurance that churches would not be forced to conduct same-sex ceremonies.
Insufficient guarantees:
“I’m very concerned”, said Mr Burns, “and I’m going to need some serious convincing about this – that while the Human Rights Act remains in place we cannot give the guarantees that I would want to see that churches would not ultimately be forced under human rights legislation to conduct such ceremonies.
Christian Concern.
