UK Prime Minister deliberately held a reception for marriage equality advocates on the eve before Romney's visit


David Cameron seems to be schooling his conservative American counterpart on how a democracy treats its LGBT citizens.  Here is his money quote from the reception:

I think marriage is a great institution – I think it helps people to commit, it helps people to say that they’re going to care and love for another person. It helps people to put aside their selfish interests and think of the union that they’re forming. It’s something I feel passionately about and I think if it’s good enough for straight people like me, it’s good enough for everybody and that’s why we should have gay marriage and we will legislate for it.  - David Cameron
