MPs have voted by 366 to 161, majority 205, to legalise gay marriage by giving the Government's controversial Marriage (Same Sex Couples) Bill a third reading.
Conservative MP Tim Loughton has described yesterday's divisions over plans to legalise gay marriage as a "grubby deal" between the front bench and the Government.
He said: "I think the Labour party have been suckered into thinking it's going to be more immediate review than it actually is."
In an article for ITV News, Conservative councillor Mary Douglas talks gay marriage and urges David Cameron to return to 'core values'.
David Cameron has defended the equal marriage bill while Nick Clegg claims a civil partnership amendment is laced with an "ulterior motive".
