Christian campaigner opposes same-sex weddings
A Christian campaigner opposed to gay marriage says he will fight to prevent a bill allowing same-sex unions to the very end.
Lay preacher and former law lecturer Peter Murcott has opposed the Marriage and Civil Partnership Bill throughout its passage through the Manx parliament.
He's now set his sights on stopping the bill being given Royal Assent - its final seal of approval before becoming law.
Mr Murcott says the Monarch has a duty to uphold the law of God under the Coronation Oath Act - and he argues, endorsing the bill contravenes the centuries-old law.
He says it's a fundamental issue:
No public board meeting for Manx Care due to General Election
Chauffeur needed to provide 'professional and discreet service' for VIPs
Fire officer praises 'quick-thinking' staff after blaze at fire station
Chief Minister: 'AG not out to silence debate'
