As a certain somebody exclusively predicted one month ago, Prime Minister David Cameron came out guns blazing for the re-definition of marriage yesterday, in his keynote speech to the Conservative Party Conference 2011.
David Cameron even had the staggering audacity to claim that the re-definition of marriage is an ideologically conservative objective. As Mike Judge of the Christian Institute has explained, there is absolutely nothing conservative about messing with marriage. To suggest that marriage is anything other than one man and one woman, as David Cameron does, is as far removed from a conservative stance as the east is from the west. Let me make it crystal clear: the abolition or redefinition of marriage can be accurately defined in ideological terms as any or all of the following: (1) Radical (in the extreme); (2) Anarchist; (3) Marxist. I challenge anybody to come up with any policy objective which exceeds Cameron's re-definition of marriage as a complete opposite of conservatism.
Given that David Cameron is now hellbent on re-defining marriage, the only question that remains is 'Will he succeed?' In considering the current Parliament, it is difficult to conceive that Cameron could fail. The majority of the public is undoubtedly against messing with marriage, but that will cut little ice in a Parliament full of MPs who just can't get enough of the pink agenda. I daresay that nothing less than the intervention of God will prevent this Parliament re-defining marriage, despite massive public opposition and despite it being just about the most shameful and completely insane legislative act imaginable.
