Gay Labour MP’s joyful marriage announcement celebrating equality goes viral: ‘Love wins’
Gay Labour MP Luke Pollard’s marriage announcement on X/Twitter has gone viral after he shared photos with the message “love wins.”
The MP for Plymouth Sutton and Devonport, in Devon, married his partner a few weeks ago “in a small ceremony at Port Eliot in Cornwall”, he wrote on Sunday (1 September).
“Sydney is my rock and I’m a very happy man that I get to call him my husband,” Pollard said. “When I was growing up it was illegal for two men to marry. We have come a long way. Love wins.”
It has been more than 10 years since the Marriage (Same Sex Couples) Bill came into force in England and Wales. The first same-sex marriages took place on 29 March 2014.
