Temporary insanity. Without sounding too sappy, love doesnt need a cure. Love is about marriage. It is marriage that is immoral without love. Perhaps we should be focusing on reducing the uks high divorce rate rather than promoting marriage. The coalition for equal marriage is love is love regardless of gender. Well, i would add that love is love regardless of marital status. And while the majority of us, almost all of us absolutely believe in marriage for all his rate and yes, compared to some countries can bush legalize samesex marriage some years ago, i note that the u. K. Has been slow to act. If things are rapidly changing. The huge success of Civil Partnerships recognized commitment to samesex couples has been a capitalist for this change.

The debate, a project to encourage them to stage their own debates on the very issues which the u. K. Yb are discussing in the combat. We know schools across the country are tuning in to watch and that is hugely welcome. Just on process and housekeeping, let me say the following. First, nyp who wish to speak should stand in their place, or raise their hands if seated in a wheelchair. Secondly, and most importantly, nyp should always say their name and region at the beginning of their speech. Otherwise the official record of our proceedings will be deficient.

Now its time for a look at the weather with helen willetts. Hello. The hot, humid weather continues in southern and eastern areas. Further north, with the sunshine, i think a more pleasant low 20s throughout the rest of today. The cloud has been quite slow to clear east wales and Northern England, so where it lingers, particularly in the north sea coast, it will be a little bit cooler here. But really the heat is with us for the next three to four days, both by day and by night. The low cloud returns tonight, and we pick up and increasing chance of a few showers from now on. But i think the talking point tonight is how humid it will be again, and more so for Northern Ireland and scotland compared with the nightjust gone. And also, the low cloud should clear a little bit more ready through the day tomorrow. Some more sunshine for Northern England equates to higher temperatures, but also an increased risk further west of some showers and some thundery downpours as we go through the day.
