I got married, coincidentally, in Bermuda back in ‘97.

Was very impressed with the country during my visit there and I am even more impressed now.

>> Prime Minister Theresa May said she was "seriously disappointed" about the decision to abolish same-sex marriage. <<

And I'm "seriously disappointed" you're still Prime Minister of the United Kingdom and claim to be a "conservative", Theresa.

I agree. Bermuda is doing it right adjusting their laws in a pragmatic way. “Gay Marriage” is a non-starter for me.

According to Bermuda's minister of home affairs, Walton Brown, the majority of Bermudians do not agree with gay couples marrying...imagine that - a country that sets policy by what a majority of its citizens favor....

I wonder if all the tax exempt international corporations based in Bermuda will show their solidarity with gay rights by leaving Bermuda and re-locating to New York City?

Not!

Re: “...the majority of Bermudians do not agree with gay couples marrying...”

No mention of the fact that a majority (54%) of Bermuda voters are Black.
