She described this single act as a major assault on the truth of Christianity and a destructive blow to the most important building block of society – marriage between one man and one woman.
Andrea listed actions by the Prime Minister which contrasted with his public statements of support for Christian principles. These included government lawyers at the European Court of Human Rights opposing the right of a worker to wear a cross as a Christian symbol, suggesting that the freedom of Christians to live out their faith in the workplace was their freedom to resign, which was no freedom at all.
She told viewers that Christian freedoms could not be confined to David Cameron’s politics, echoing the words of media commentators that the Prime Minister and some of his Cabinet colleagues were choosing to defend Christian interests in the aftermath of widespreasd criticism of the redefinition of marriage and in the sensitive run-up to the European Elections.
