Coalition for Equal Marriage
The Coalition for Equal Marriage is a British campaign group created in 2012 by Conor Marron and James Lattimore, a same-sex couple, to petition in support of civil marriages for gay couples.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Comment: Why we're building a coalition for equal marriage )〕 The Coalition for Equal Marriage was created in response to the Coalition for Marriage, a Christian group campaigning against same-sex marriage in the United Kingdom.〔〔 (【引用サイトリンク】title=About Us )〕
The coalition's website states the campaign started after Lattimore read a BBC News article regarding the ''Coalition for Marriage'' and seeing a comment from Lord Carey stating "The avowed intention to widen the scope of marriage as we see before us is a hostile strike, which rather than strengthening marriage, will destroy its meaning and diminish its importance drastically". Lattimore and his partner began working on the site and mimicked the look and design of the ''Coalition for Marriage'' website as a spoof, with Facebook and Twitter campaigns launched a day later. Signatures reached 10,000 roughly ten days afterwards〔 〕 and 40,000 signatures in April 2012.〔 (【引用サイトリンク】title=Coalition For Equal Marriage )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=UK: Grassroots campaign 'Coalition for EQUAL Marriage' launches )〕
==Signing of Nick Clegg==
Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg has signed the Coalition for Equal Marriage petition, and in an interview for ''The Independent'' Clegg was reported to have called it "a matter of ''how'', not ''whether'', equal marriage becomes legal in England and Wales."
Conor Marron, co-founder of the Coalition for Equal Marriage, released a statement thanking Nick Clegg and the MPs "who have voiced their position on the subject".
