If you're one of the first same-sex couples getting married this weekend, and you've got a spare seat, you might want to invite the likes of Norman Tebbit or Nigel Farage. Then each can see, for themselves, just how much this hard-won right - to celebrate your love for each other - means to you, your families and our country. Hide

[2010; on Desert Island Discs] I have a confession to make which is I do like the occasional cigarette... I can just imagine as the sun's going down and you know I've got the beard flowing down to my knees and I'm thinking what on earth am I going to, you know, while away the time... puffing away on a cigarette would be quite nice. I know I'm not supposed to say this because it's a terrible thing. And I hope my children don't hear this programme because they don't even know that I smoke. Hide

On the left it is attractive to say you don't need to make any difficult economic decisions. On the right it becomes tempting to blame it on everyone else - foreigners, immigrants, take your pick.

It should be entirely unremarkable and completely uncontroversial that two people, whoever they are, want to express and celebrate their love for each other. Getting to this point has not been easy. There has been a lot of anger. There have been vicious words and, in some cases, prejudice has been exposed. So today when Britain celebrates, let's ensure that prejudices of the past are well and truly beaten. Hide
