Gay couples are expected to be able to marry next year
The bill allowing same-sex couples to marry in England and Wales has passed its final hurdle in Parliament.
The government legislation is now due to get royal assent, after which it is likely to become law later this week.
The Conservative, Labour and Liberal Democrat leaderships all backed the bill, after the Lords approved the changes on Monday.
It is expected that the first gay and lesbian wedding ceremonies will take place by summer next year.
Finally Britain
It got through the House of Commons and now the queen just needs to sign it for it to be legal
Congrats! if only my country did the same.
