Submit your consultation response on Redefining Marriage
Respond now
We have set up a simple, easy web form that allows you to send your response directly to the Government’s public consultation on redefining marriage.
The consultation will play a key role in whether the proposal goes ahead or not. This is your chance to tell the Government you want to keep the true meaning of marriage.
The core issue – whether or not marriage should be redefined – is covered by Questions 1 and 2 of the consultation. Other questions cover the mechanics of how, not if, marriage should be redefined. We are urging our supporters to respond to the first two questions covering the core issue.
Click here to submit your response now.
Tell others
The consultation runs until 14 June. It is important that we get as many people as we can to respond. Virtually half-a-million people have signed our petition against the plans. It is vital that people also respond to the consultation to say they disagree with the Government’s proposal.
