LONDON – Britain legalised gay marriage on
Wednesday after Queen Elizabeth II gave her
royal assent to a bill approved by lawmakers, the
culture ministry said.
Same-sex couples will be able to marry from next
year after Prime Minister David Cameron pushed
the legislation through against the will of dozens
of his own Conservative lawmakers.
Members of parliament cheered as they were told
the historic bill, pushed through by Prime Minister
David Cameron despite opposition within his own
party, had passed into law.
The first gay weddings are expected in the middle
of next year as the government is sorting out
issues such as the impact on pensions.
“This is a historic moment that will resonate in
many people’s lives,” said Culture Minister Maria
Miller, whose department was responsible for the
bill.
“I am proud that we have made it happen, and I
look forward to the first same sex wedding by
next summer.”
Lawmakers in parliament’s lower House of
Commons formally approved the bill on Tuesday
night, a day after the upper House of Lords gave
it the nod.
The queen’s assent, given in her capacity as head
of state, was then announced in both chambers
of parliament on Wednesday, at which point it
became law.
“I have to notify the House in accordance with
the Royal Assent 1967 that Her Majesty has
signified her Royal Assent to the following acts…
Marriage (Same Sex Couples) Bill,” John Bercow,
the speaker of the House of Commons, told MPs.
The cheers that greeted the news belied the
stormy passage that the bill had through
parliament, during which many of Cameron’s
Conservative lawmakers opposed it. AFP

Decryptor: I don't know about other schs but my alma-mata (UNIZIK) pulled out of ASUU around 2002 during that 9month strike back then. From that time till now, no strike from ASUU has ever affected them. The only downside was that our sch fees increased with over 150% rate and there was a demonstration.

Wow! ur skul is lucky den.am sure unical is still under ASUU, we re still trying to recover from d skul internal strike now dis is coming...

Pls guys someone just told me that dis strike is not affecting all skuls so am beginning to wonder re they skuls dt re under ASUU tot it was all uni apart from private uni..some shud clear me on dis pls...

Pls can someone tell me how do we know skuls that are under ASUU? Cos I was tinkin is evry universities except private.
