The Vice President of the European Commission has said he wants all 28 EU countries to recognise or legalise same-sex marriage.

Speaking at an Equality Gala in Brussels hosted by ILGA-Europe, Dutch politician Frans Timmermans said the ultimate goal was to get all states to "unreservedly" embrace equality.

Currently, the majority of the 28 EU member states continue to ban same-sex marriage – but it is legal in Belgium, France, Denmark, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, Sweden and the UK.

With the SCOTUS ruling in the US, it looks like critical mass for marriage equality has been reached. Now is the time to push harder for Trans-Equality. JMHO.
