Thousands of homosexuals in England and Wales are due to ‘get married’ in civil partnerships when ‘weddings’ begin Wednesday 21 December. Venues include the London Eye and H.M.S. Belfast. Registry Offices and Hotels are said to be ‘inundated’ with enquiries from “same sex partners”, almost all male. In Brighton, a town with a large homosexual population – and three of whose four General Election candidates were all homosexual – already has around 500 ‘couples’ planning to register their partnerships at Brighton and Hove Albion Football Ground. The London Borough of Islington, which is said to have Britain’s highest number of co-habiting homosexuals, has already booked 80 ‘couples’ at its’ Town Hall. Another popular venue for civil partnership ceremonies is London Zoo, which recently held a “Gay Day” which attracted 2,000 people.
