Don’t ignore polygamy

Baroness Warsi calls on politicians to stop messing about and face the issue:

“There has to be a culture change and that has to brought about by policy makers taking a very clear stance on this issue, saying that in this country, one married man is allowed to marry one woman.”

I wonder how long it will be before the BBC rewrites that, or a clarification is issued, making plain that actually it is only polygamy we are dealing with, and that this archaic definition of marriage clearly was not taking into account the perfectly acceptable practice of two men or two women entering into a civil union.  Ahem.
