Why January?

Q: Why is the Government planning to rush same-sex marriage legislation through in January?

A: Because it will be very cold in January, so less protesters, if any, are assured.

Maybe I'm just paranoid...I mean, it probably hasn't even entered into our Bishops' heads to organise any form of protest. Westminster Cathedral is a whole 4 minutes walk from Parliament and it is chilly.

I see on the BBC website that Archbishop Nichols and Archbishop Peter Smith have finally spoken.

Is anyone organising a series of demos? Let's have a "Marches for Marriage" in London, Glasgow Belfast and Cardiff on the same day. Georgie
