Well, probably not that one either, come to think of it, but this is a different one...


quote:
While the rest of the UK is ushering in gay and lesbian civil unions, the Western Isles became the only region in Britain to ban same-sex wedding ceremonies. Councillors in Stornoway expressed their support for the islands' registrars who are refusing to perform civil partnership ceremonies tomorrow, even though they can and will be held across the rest of Scotland. Oddly enough no Western Isles couple has even registering their intention to enter a civil partnership.
