This would mean patchy local services rather than the current national backbone of support and the potential waste of £21million of tax payers' money on red tape and form filling. Rupert Myers: Gay Marriage, Laurie Penny, and the State of Comment Laurie Penny fails to present a nuanced article on why same-sex marriage should be legalised.
