Hi everyone!
Ok...some of you may know I recently did a thread asking people to support Gay Marriage here in the UK by signing the petition and so many of you did and it got it from around 12,000 signatures to now over 50,000.
Hoever, the petition AGAINST equal marriage has now reached a disturbing 500,000 signatures with rumours suggesting their campaign has even been sent out to religious schools and children as young as NINE have been coerced into signing it!
Ok..here's where I need your help! I am now one of the founder members of a new campaign about to be launched in the UK and internationally called 'Out for Marriage' in association with www.pinknews.co.uk and www.c4em.org.uk
We are asking people for a short video (around 1 minute) done on an iphone, a web cam or any video recording device to say why you are 'Out for Marriage'. It is going to be similar to the 'It Gets Better' campaign to help school children who have been bullied and committed suicide because they are gay.
This campaign is going to be MASSIVE and the likes of Madonna, Kylie Minogue and Lady GaGa have already been approached and are likely to get involved. However we need ordinary people, straight or gay or whatever gender and sexuality to make a very short video about why they think gay marriage should be legal and why it is important finishing with the line 'and that's why I/We are Out for Marriage!'
My fiancee James and I will be making ours today and it is exciting stuff as we are soon to be heading to Downing Street to do some filming for the campaign. It's also headed up by our friend Benjamin Cohen, best known as a channel four news reporter and hopefully his contacts in the industry will ge this going.
Our campaign doesn't have the money and resources as the religious bigots campaign, but what we do have is more powerful than anything; love. Our campaign is about wanting the right to celebrate being together in love and that can only be a good thing!
If anyone is interested in doing their bit please get in touch and I will give you all the info! It really only takes a few minutes and you can be part of history!
