Gay news: Boris Johnson says:" gay marriage? Why not?"

From Pink News:
Mayor of London Boris Johnson has told PinkNews Queer As Folk DVD.co.uk that he supports gay marriage and wants to be mayor again for Worldpride, which London will be hosting in 2012. Kicking off the parade with members of the Gay Liberation Front, Mr Johnson said: "If the Conservatives and Liberals can get together in a national coalition and settle their differences, I don't see why you can't have gay marriage".Queer As Folk DVD
Further on:
Mr Johnson made his pro-gay marriage declaration in response to a placard being carried by gay rights campaigner Peter Tatchell Queer As Folk DVD boxset. Mr Tatchell told PinkNews.co.uk: "I'm very pleased. He took one look at it and said 'why not?' I'm sure his support will add to the pressure to marriage equality."Queer As Folk DVD boxset
Boris's sometimes perplexing stance on lesbian and gay rights Queer As Folk DVD set has a long and educational history. Political opponents have exploited attacks he made in and around 2000 on what he characterised as state-sponsored "instruction" of school children in homosexuality, yet in 2003 he was among 20-odd Conservative MPs who declined to support an amendment by fellow Conservatives aimed at blocking Labour's repeal of Section 28.Queer As Folk DVD set
As the memorable Stonewall/Pink News 2008 mayoral hustings demonstrated, his position typifies the paradox of right-wing libertariansim in that Queer As Folk seasons 1-5 DVD boxset, on the one hand he approves of individual freedom but on the other he recoils from the idea of governments acting to help increase it. This can be awkward to defend. A moment of rare public touchiness resulted.
Boris has always been a follower rather than a leader in this territory and, at times, a rather silly one. But at least he's a liberal follower.Queer As Folk DVD
Tories were in conspicuous attendance at this year's Pride, including London Assembly members Roger Evans and Andrew Boff. The Lib Dem equalities minister Lynne Featherstone was there too, as was Labour mayoral contender Oona King though her rival Ken Livingstone, an early champion of London's lesbians and gay men, was not. I asked his campaign team if this was connected with a past run-in with Peter Tatchell, but was assured that Ken's absence was due to "a long-standing family commitment."
