The phrase caught my eye.MPs get a free vote on the Marriage (Same Sex Couples) Bill because it is considered an issue of conscience and many Conservative MPs spoke out against the principle of gay marriage.

Former defence minister Sir Gerald Howarth said the plans were "divisive" and suggested there are plenty of people "in the aggressive homosexual community who see this as but a stepping stone to something even further".

BBC News - Gay marriage: Deal to allow bill to proceed in Parliament

I saw something on the news tonight that they could mean homosexual and Lesbian Priests.... could It be that ?
