The government is refusing to overturn a decision by Bermuda to ban same-sex weddings which will also mean gay couples of all nationalities cannot marry on many cruise liners. The island, a British Overseas Territory, has become the first country in the world to repeal equal marriage legislation.

Walton Brown, Bermuda’s Minister of Home Affairs, whose ruling PLP party proposed the act, said he was pleased with the decision. “The British government recognises that this is a local government decision,” he said. He said the legislation struck a compromise by “restating that marriage must be between a male and a female while at the same time recognising and protecting the rights of same-sex couples”.[/quote]
They've introduced a new 'domestic' arrangement being hung up on the word 'marriage' but will continue to recognise those marriages in existence.
Easy response - ignore Bermuda and don't risk their childish, backwards triangle.
