Talk:Same-sex marriage in the United Kingdom

Bermuda
The Bermuda Court of Appeal has upheld the previous court ruling in favor of same-sex marriage. The court issued no stay allowing marriages to commence immediately. The government has 21 days to appeal, should it choose to do so, to the Privy Council if the Council decides to hear the appeal. Appropriate articles and maps need to be edited to reflect this change. The Royal Gazette: Government loses same-sex battle Fortguy (talk) 03:46, 24 November 2018 (UTC)

Performed vs recognised
Noting the paragraphs about Crown Dependencies (which are not technically part of the UK by the way), the writers mention several territories with very low population e.g. Tristan da Cunha and Pitcairn (which both have under a thousand), and also South Georgia which has no permanent population. Is there any evidence of gay marriages being conducted in these places as opposed to recognition of them? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A01:4C8:141C:5F17:1:1:D114:9D23 (talk) 01:12, 16 February 2019 (UTC)

Figure for membership of Scottish Episcopal Church
Although the figure of 100,000 appears on the cited Religion News Service website, it gives a misleading impression, and I would question its reliability. According to Wikipedia, the Scottish Episcopal Church itself claimed in 2019 to have a church membership of 27,585 of whom 19,784 were communicant members. I suspect the discrepancy arises because of the familiar problem with churches, especially Anglican churches: a large number of people are baptised as infants into the church, and can thus be classed as members, but only those who are active members are likely to feature on church membership rolls.Ntmr (talk) 18:50, 14 April 2021 (UTC)
